Since the last entry several things have happened. I guess the first and most important one, given the content of the last entry is that we took the house with the feature walls I linked to back there.

This month has involved a week away in Scotland, spent around Loch Ness and up in Dufftown, including 5 distillery visits (Glen Grant, Glenfiddich, Glen Ord, Dalwhinnie & Cragganmore), 1 brewery (Black Isle), 1 chocolate factory (The Olive Tree), 10 bottles of beer, 3 bottles of whisky and a chocolate bar of my own design, mwahaha ( Read more... )

Since my last update I've not been doing a huge amount of exciting things. Last weekend we went to Jane's parents' for the afternoon/evening and had tea there, it's been a while since we did that. It was remarkably stress-free, and their new car is shiny :)

I've been enjoying rehearsals for OMTC's next show, the director appears to have calmed ( Read more... )
