Taking Shape

Been a while since I posted anything so time for an update; The main reason for not posting is too much time on the PS3! I just find that most nights when we're not watching something on tv, and Jen is on her laptop I might as well take advantage of the PS3 time. Plus we've bought a new tv and games on it look really good.
We had a good Christmas and New Year and tried to make the most of it given that all three of us were ill at some point. December felt like a month spent in the Doctor's surgery!
Abigail was spoilt rotten with pressies at Xmas as expected, but she loves her new toys; Kitchen, Easel, Car, Dolls, Trampoline etc...and of course, not forgetting a Chef's outfit..!

We were at a friends wedding on New Year's eve which was something very different to normal but it was really good. It had a really homely atmosphere with roaring coal fires etc, and having all our friends there at Midnight was perfect.

Looking at 2009 it's already looking like it's going to be a very busy year; The house extension is still on-going, althought the external work is just about done with the roof tiles going on literally as I type this. We've then obviously got the job of the inside to do.
Already got 2 Weddings booked, which means there's the Hen and Stag doo's to go with them. Got a few weekends away sorted too, and then there's Jen Christmas from me in a few weeks - tickets to see the Dirty Dancing show in London.

Thought I'd finish with a video of Abigail pointing out the shapes her Mammy had drawn on her Easel;

and another of her identifying the animals;

and finally one of Abigail spotting the Colours;

Christmas Coke

Coca-Cola advertise right at the top of the famous corner screens in Piccadilly Circus, London and over the Festive Period they gave people the opportunity to send in a message for friends or family which they would display on the screen.


They then send an e-mail informing of the 15 slot when your message will appear. Best of all, for people that can't get to Piccadilly Circus to see their message in person - there was a webcam in place producing Live Feed to their website. I managed to catch a shot of our message... :o)
