As I write this post my tip-tip-tapping is being accompanied by the panting and harrumphing of my new BFF.  New noises and a cooling breeze are floating in through my bedroom window and I couldn’t be happier about it.

The harrumph-er in question is a docile scamp named Allie whose hair rivals Cyndi Lauper’s punkiest styles.  She has been brightening my days for the past few weeks with her waggy tail and insatiable thirst for walks and playtime.  The noise through the window are further south than I’m used to but as the days roll on they seem a little more familiar.

I finish my current contract this Friday and the last few weeks have been an exciting blur of planning, shooting and moving house with the wonderful wedding back home of my friends Karen and James thrown in for good measure.

It’s been frantic but great fun and as the dust settles and the packing boxes are put away for another while I’m starting to get back into a more ‘normal’ routine – cue more regular than ‘once in a blue moon’ blog posts…

This guy’s still my number one…

The girls with the beautiful bride

Congratulations Karen and James!

I’ve moved a little further south and one of the great benefits to this has been getting the bus.  With a slightly longer commute I’ve had the chance to fall back in love with reading for fun and have been busily making my way through different writing styles while I try and figure out themes within my own.

I thought about introducing some new content around books to the blog – is that something you would be interested in?  Answers on a postcard please…

Until next time,
