2006

Alexa and Gary got hitched at last. We ditched Jack at Jane's mums and both headed up to Grimsby. You simply can't beat a good wedding.

We packed up my redundancy troubles, replaced our old kit bag with a Ford Focus and sailed to France for a two week holiday. Of course The Marsdens acompanied us. As did Dave Barrow and Susan Hampshaw plus Thomas. Two weeks in a gite in Normandy. What bliss - if only it wasn't interrupted by a spot of Poulet Pox for Jack.

Summer was here and so was a torrential downpour. Little old Whitestile Road got flooded as anxious residents peered out of the their upstairs windows.

Big footie tournament, summer nights. It must be time for a drink-fuelled night out with Chris, Reggie and Lisa. Nobody mentioned that it was going to include Karaoke.

In May I met up with Sophie and Mel at a god-unearthly hour at heathrow to jet out to see Suki in Gibraltar. We spent the next three days being wined, being dined and chilling out. And then Sophie and I got a stomach bug. We think it was food poisoning because that sounds more dramatic.

Centre Parcs (invariably with The Marsdens) during the Half Term holidays in Ferbrary saw Jack get to know James and Rebecca a bit better.

We went to Bristol for the Easter weekend to see family. Try viewing the photographs as a slideshow.

I got a bit lazy using the Photo Uploader JAlbum. It served me very well but I have succumbed to the lure of FlickR. You can check out all of my photos here.
