We have been renting a bunch of appliances for the past couple of months while we got the cash together to buy. One of those appliances was a television. Last week we managed to find a fridge and washing machine to replace the rentals, so we decided to send all the rentals back… Now for the forseeable future, we have no television.
It’s been really wierd tonight. Especially when the first thing I feel like doing when I get home is watching a repeat of The Simpsons, even though it’s one I’ve seen 12 times (though sometimes there’s the odd gem I haven’t seen at all… not often, but sometimes. Oh well now we might have to find some hobbies! Maybe it’s time to get my camera out again, I’m thinking about doing a Portrait photography course in a month or so. I suck at portrait photography, so it might be good!
Hmmm, it could be the first step to actually properly getting back into writing on this thing…
Stay tuned, we’ll be right back after these messages…

After a brief hiatis of only 8 months I’m back, with a new look!
Its been a big eight months that’s for sure, Anna and I got engaged! Not only that we got married! We managed to throw together an absolutely cracking party at a vineyard on Waiheke in three months. It was a fantastic day, in a magical setting, just perfect for me to give my vows to the love of my life. Some photos…
There is one small, but soon to be rectified, issue. I’m living in Melbourne. Anna’s living in Auckland. It SUCKS! Well, Melbourne rules, which is why we are looking to buy a house here, but the scenerio sucks. Basically, I got offered a job in Melbourne a week after Anna got offered and accepted an awesome opportunity in Auckland. We decided that I would take the job in Melbourne and Anna would work through at least 3 months of her job then we would see what happens. So two weeks after the big day, I left my bride at four in the morning to catch the 6:50am flight to my new home. Four months after that, numerous 3:30am Monday morning departures and 30000 Qantas (I’m going fully Australian) airpoints later, we are finally going to be together in one country under one roof.
