11 weeks to go…. eek
Blimey, time seems to be going through one of its speedy phases – only 11 flipping weeks to the wedding! Still slightly hard to believe when I: i) am still chock full of snot, ii) am miles from the wedding weight target (hard to go to the gym when your snout drips endlessly) and iii)…

Foodfest for Fatties
So, I wonder why the weight loss thing is quite so hard… Let's review the weekend's edible entertainment: Friday night: Supper with Vicki & Tina. A truly valiant effort on their part not to lard me up, though most certainly the first time I have ever been served a rice cake for a starter while everyone…

Snotbound
SNOT – where the bloody hell does it all come from and why doesn't it behave like anything else in life? How can something you blow out of your nose one minute, magically reappear within seconds up your raw hooter again, like a bloody rabbit from a hat? And how can it invisibly travel at…

Clogland Weekend
So – just back from three days in wet & grey Clogland, mostly taking Mum to se her older and rather crumbly brother, my Uncle Jan (Oom Jan, as they say in Hollandia). So a pretty wild time all in all, pushing wheelchairs – Mum in one, Jan in another and my poor 7 months…

All fine with Prof
Yup – Prof still driving me a bit potty with regard to how hard it can be to drag a comprehensible answer out of him, but at least the scores on the doors remain good, and H came with me to get up to speed again as he's been travelling for the last few. Paraprotein…

Prof Tomorrow
Uuuuurrrgggghhhhhh Yes it is indeed, yet again, the day before a much unwanted Prof appointment, tomorrow morning. Bloody well hate going but it seems my presence, my bloods and a charming pot of pee are as ever, required. All feels a bit odd when I am so well – I even scored my first League goal for…

Just FUR you all..
Yo peeps, just flicking through the photos from H and my weekend in El Lisbonia and thought would pop these three pics up. One of H on one of his last days on crutches – hurrah – although it has to be said they are very handy for getting good seats at the front on…

Lisbon-bon
Hey peeps, just back from a heavy week in Lisbon – obviously not too heavy on intellectual debate and discusion, more heavy on alcohol consumption and eyeball-popping late nights. Very amusing final night of conference as Hawksey appeared and was invited along with the 5-6 other 'other halves' to come and join the dinner –…

Off to Lisbon
Hey all – announcing slight delay in blogging service as off to Lisbon tomorrow for the Added Value Annual Global Directors Conference Thingy Doodah Blah Blah. Then H is appearing on Thurs in Lisbon for a weekend away together, testing out the Lisbon cobbles with his crutches, as long as Easyjet let him on board…

Weddings Schmeddings
So how come weekends fly by in the blink of an eye, several hundred miles of Lexus whipping up and down obscure West Country motorways, a couple of ropey Service Station butties and a pile of random meetings with weddingy suppliers of the Dorset variety..? Weekdays sure as hell dont whip by quite so nippily..…
