Sunday, April 8



We heard the door buzzer go off and Alex went down to see who it was and came back up with these beautiful flowers and yummy chockies that the kirky crew sent. They are bootiful and smell very nice, can't wait to dig into the chockies too!

Toast Australia


Toast Australia at Regents Park
A festival of Aussie wines, food and some great aussie music.



Jazza and Lyss hanging out in the sun




Paul Kelly played, it was unreal to see him live, played the good ol aussie classics!




Watch the video we got of Paul Kelly doing "To her door"!




oh sweet, Al and Al


Amsterdam?



Venice?



Nope! London! this is part of the canal that spreads throughout the middle of london that we cycle on every now and then. It blew me away to think this existed you would never expect that behind all the buildings there was a beautiful canal like this!


New Forest weekend break


We headed down to New Forest to get away from the city bussle, a very lovely relaxing weekend. It was even warm enough to have dinner in the garden.


Alex's parents house



The rooster that woke me up



The chickens! they're so cute!

Partying in a stately home!!

On the 4th of July, we headed to Norfolk to watch a public screening of Cock and Bull Story and afterwards party in a beautiful stately home - Gunthorpe Hall. Here's some pickies of the screening and the Gunthorpe Hall, and for those interested, there just happens to be a review of the film on the Channel4 website:

Where's lyssa?



The inflatable screen they projected the movie on to in amongst the lovely gardens.



Stephen Fry, oh yes I'm racking up the celeb spotting points now!




There she is!



The screen, dunno why I took another photo of that but there you go...



Gunthorpe Hall, what a place to stay! there were 42 beds in this place and we ended up finding a huge loft room after scouting around for ages looking for somewhere to sleep and discovering a tiny cupboard door which revealed a narrow winding staircase leeding up to the room! find!









This was taken at about 5am!





The private fishing lake, I was calculating the ski run you could get on it :)





The beach at Cromer, we thought we'd check it out before jumping on the train to head back to little 'ol London town. I don't think I'll be swimming!
