Almost everyone has one of those family members that gets you the stereotypical gift of socks, or a jumper etc.
My Nan was one of these people, each year she would get one of those gifts, be it socks or perhaps a pack of handkerchiefs.

As my significant other has mentioned, the petition for the Visa has gone through. We now get to kick things up a notch, which includes planning the actual wedding. Jen ordered the rings just before I left her last, unfortunately they didn’t show up until after I had returned to England. Today her wedding dress arrived which she seems to really like which is nice, looking forward to seeing her in it.

We’ve been wanting to get some family photos done for a while now. Finally got around to getting some done the last time I was over with Jen and the kids.
After being persuaded by Jen to post them here they are:

You would think after the incident with my passport things would start looking up.
Simply put, no!

Tomorrow is the end of “Jen Time”. I fly back to the UK and bide my time before I can spend some more time with my loved ones. The last few days of my visit are always difficult, both of us push it out of our minds but it sneaks in on occasion and upsets the both of us.

So I was chatting in CC earlier and Denis posted a picture of his university and as I was searching for a picture of my ex-university (it was a tough relationship we felt it would be best if we went our seperate ways) and decided to do a search of Route 66 and lo and behold there was a picture of chris. Checking the url of the image it said you tube and lead me to this;
Was quite strange finding an old work friend on youtube working his magic, shame you can’t see his feet.

So after 3 days of loading up the truck in rather hot weather, then the 8 hour drive across to Indiana we are finally at the new house. I would say we have moved in but as you can see from the above image that statement would not be entirely true.
The new house is pretty nice, our new room is larger but we seem to have more stuff than before so we’ll see how that goes. We got the internet set up, unfortunatly its wireless (boo hiss) so I don’t have a wireless card which will set my work schedule back, can’t say I am too happy with this. We’re hoping Jen will get the modem in her room if so then I can get net access (its actually a hybrid modem).
Thankfully no more packing, course there is now unpacking but damn is everyone tired and grumpy.

So I ordered a dozen purple roses for Jennifer for valentines day and that actually arrived today (ordered them yesterday). She found them waiting for her when she came home from work for lunch.
I was really hoping they would get there on time seeming the card isn’t going to.

So my first console was a Sega MegaDrive 2 (Sega Genesis for our USA readers). Then we moved on to a PS1 and then PS2. But I was a big Sonic fan.
A few years ago I brought a second hand Sega Mega Drive as I missed the old school games and Sonic unfortunately the system is a tad flaky so doesn’t get used much.
