Hiya! Just arrived back in the 'church after my mini-snowboarding holiday down south with Michael, Emma, Phoebe, Jo and Wee Al.
A good time was had by all. Everyone got loads better at skiing, and didn't fall over too much. Unfortunately for me, i was snowboarding. I got a bit better, and fell over lots. And lots. And lots.

I would write more now, but i've been driving for 11hours in the last two days (As well as lots more fun stuff), and so i'm a tad tired and peckish, so i'm going to head home, rustle up some pleasant looking vegetables, then curl up with the brilliant book i'm currently reading 'Barrow's Boys', by Fergus Fleming. A rip roaring account of English explorers in the early 19th century exploring the coldest, hottest and most dangerous parts of the planet. Their discoveries, and more often their grisly deaths at the hands of dengue fever, scurvy or irate Tuareg tribesmen.
