Archives for “Hubbie”
Yesterday I began to receive text messages from a number I didn’t recognise, from a person called “Jay”. These messages were full of descriptions of what Jay wanted to do to me – and they were disgusting! Normally when something like this happens, the first person that I would talk to is my husband, but [...]

Things have been very quiet on here lately, mainly because work has been nuts and we’ve been prepping for our honeymoon. Unlike most couples who head off for a few weeks on a beach, we’ve decided to do things a little differently. Tomorrow at 6am we set off on our European Odyssey for the next three [...]
All evening I’ve been doing everything I can to put off writing this post… reading RSS feeds, catching up on twitter, emailing people, even housework, just ‘cos I didn’t want to put these words down on the screen. A few weeks ago, the hubbie George acquired himself a new car. We’ve had a few issues [...]
It’s been another week without posts, mainly because I was working on moving Mum’s blog over to a self-hosted platform and transferring her from Blogger to WordPress. The main reason was her love of podcasting – while there are a lot of services out there that offer free podcast hosting, such as Evoca, they [...]
A few months ago I was in the car with my hubbie, heading down to Laois on the motorway. On Irish roads we see a lot of tailgaters, and I noticed about five cars traveling very close together. A car pulled out in front of this chain to overtake, but was traveling much [...]
Oh God, I’ve been meaning and promising to post this for ages, and now that the wedding is out of the way I no longer have an excuse! Our wedding was originally planned for 120 people, but as a lot of them were from overseas we ended up with 85 at the ceremony and meal. [...]

Five years ago I was at a dark place in my life. Mum was ill and I had just quit both my job and my friends in Scotland and moved back home. Then you came into my life like a ray of sun, and I’ve bathed in the brightness of your love ever [...]
From an article on the BBC website today: There are calls for the European Union to ban the making of cars that can go at more than 101mph (162km/h). The proposal comes in a report to the European Parliament on EU plans for a law to curb CO2 emissions from cars. MEPs will vote on the plan this [...]
Firstly, and most importantly the photos are up here (even though I didn’t manage to get any of Tom dancing, and missed that as I had to leave early…). There’s even a photo of TwentyMajor in there, but I’m not saying which one! A great night was had by all, even if Grannymar didn’t win. [...]
The Hubbie and I are trying to book our honeymoon at the moment, a three week tour around Europe in September. We’re planning to take in 2 Grand Prix races, firstly in Monza, Italy and then the following weekend in Spa, Belgium. We also have tickets for the Nurburgring Ring Taxi, which should be [...]
Just brought to my attention by my hubbie, my RSS feed changed during my recent move from Blogger to Wordpress. Subscribe to the new feed by clicking here.
Well I arrived safely in Arizona, even if my luggage didn’t! It’s about time, in fairness, as I’ve been traveling a lot over the past few years and mostly through Heathrow when accessing the USA. I’m not totally sure what happened, as my colleague and I arrived in Heathrow with 2hrs 30mins to spare, had [...]
And off to Arizona in the morning… Superbowl party on Sunday, team meetings for 4 days and then a glorious day spent shopping before taking the overnight flight home… So if you hadn’t already guessed, posting will most likely be even more intermittent than normal as I’ll end up spending the week running around catching [...]
One of the reasons that I hadn’t blogged over the past few weeks (apart from being sick) was that I had got bogged down and behind in all my surfing. I read a ton of blogs and news sites via NewsGator every day and if I don’t make time every day I soon fall [...]
My hubbie found a wonderful site for me today! We’ve been using DVD Profiler for a few years now, it’s a great way to keep track of your DVD/movie collection. And the hubbie has spent many, many hours doing a fantastic job of ripping all of our music to the PC, tagging it and adding [...]
This one will be last post on the holidays, I promise… So after our good fun at the Giant’s Causeway, we headed back to the Bushmills Whiskey Distillery for a tour. I’ve been there quite a few times at this point, so i could practically give the tour at this point! American Bourbon once [...]
So on Thurs we were up bright and early and as predicted, the weather was fantastic. We headed off with a list of things to try and see on the North Coast (everyone knows how i love my planned agendas!) but it can be tough to fit everything into one day. We detoured immediately on [...]
So I’ve been lazy and neglected my blogging during the holidays, but G & I have had a really good time on our week off, it’s hard to think that the alarm will be sounding at 6:30 in the morning and that I’ll be back at work tomorrow! We went and looked at an apartment in [...]
from the story of my holiday, anyway… I was ranting at G today about Mary Harney and he was sick of hearing me go on so he told me to “Blog It”, which now seems to be the house standard response to a rant you don’t want to hear! We were talking about the smoking ban over [...]
Third day of the holidays and my first blog from George’s PDA phone. It’s wierd typing on these teeny keys, feels almost like texting instead of typing… Today was a great day, we woke up late and started planning our week off. tomorrow we are going to look at an apartment in the morning and [...]
Yup, it’s finally time for that summer holiday that my body and brain have been screaming for during the past few months! G and I both have a week off work and boy do we need it. So today is the first day and I started by going for a nice massage to get me [...]
The title of that should really be “George has given up smoking“! To try and keep his mind off the cravings I suggested to him that he should try a blog whenever he felt the need. He did and he’s turned into a more prolific blogger than me!! Have a read and give him some support…
