September, October 2010




It would appear that my trend in blogging has continued with some gusto. It is now the start of January and having been flat out with work and the blog has had to wait I'm afraid. Now that work has slowed down slightly, I have time to do a quick update and get some images on the site.
So as you might have gathered, the weddings have been non stop and it's been a seven days a week job just trying to keep up with the processing and editing of them all.
The good news is that next year is almost fully booked and I now have an assistant to help with the workload, so welcome to Ted.
Other events on the work front have been a shoot for Mariee bridalwear, which we shot on location at the start of September, plus a series of jobs for Sale Sharks marketing department for the 2010/2011 season involving several of the players, as well as the Sharks 2011 uncovered calendar, which is on sale at the moment and is also raising money for The Seashell Trust. Details are on the Sale Sharks website, https://shop.salesharks.com/
Other jobs during September/October have been for Greene King beer and the NHS.




On the domestic front, we had some bad news regarding one of the animals. Enzo, our little ginger cat was run over. It just goes to show that even out in the middle of the country, away from main roads, the animals are still susceptible to vehicles. I never realised how much the loss of one little ginger cat would affect me, maybe I'm a bit of a soft touch after all?
Prior to losing Enzo, Kristin had convinced me to take in another little creature in need of a good home. The animal in question was a little black kitten, who we called Pudding.
Pudding and Enzo quickly became good friends, which made Enzo's absence even harder to stomach.
But time moves on and the ankles that were once tap tackled, as I walked up the stairs, by a little ginger cat, were soon under attack from a little black cat. The baton had been passed on.

The good news at home was that the bees had been busy in the short time they'd spent with us and seem to have benefited from the dry early summer, providing both them and us with a good harvest of honey. So I'll leave them with plenty of stores for the winter and hope they work just as hard next year. The chickens have enjoyed just about every plant in the garden, much to my dismay, and there are very definite and swift plans to make them a nice bespoke run before next Spring.
