Easter Holidays


The easter holidays came rather unexpectly, actually I forgot that they were coming up, if it wasen't for Briony and Brandon. Briony and Brandon are friends from Brisbane who are now working in Cardiff in Wales. They came to keep me company in London during the holidays, during their stay I met Brandon's parents and rode the London Eye with them. The view was really cool from the top of the eye, however it wasen't the clearest of London days and hence we didn't quite get the full range (on a crystal clear day, it's rumoured that you can see for 100kms from the top).

On easter monday we welcomed the end of the long winter by having our first backyard BBQ.

Will Crawford's Farewell


The end of March saw one of my new found friends leave London. Will's an english friend that I met and he has kindly introduced me to his other frinds. At the end of March, Will will be moving to the United States to get married. Needless to say, we had a few send of sessions for WC. The group shot was taken at a local pub in Kensington, "The Builder's Arms", which has been somewhat of a venue where we go for special events as opposed to our regular sessions on Tuesday nights. The other send off session was at a paintball field north of London. The day was pretty cool, about half of the people that had come had not played before and hence there was lots of jokes about how much it would hurt. All in all I think everyone had a great time.
