Well hello there. Yes, I know it's been a while and the reason being is that nothing much has happened for nearly a month! I am working at the moment - for the next few months anyway. And basically life is treating me well 
The only exciting thing that happened was my holiday to Austria with Ria last week. We went for 8 days and enjoyed every minute of it. We stayed in the picturesque resort of Seefeld which is as far away from Salzburg as you can get (Sound of Music territory!) We went up a mountain (a pretty darn high one at that) by furnicular train and then halfway up we had to get off and finish the second half by cable-car. Even though it was bright sunshine we were walking in the snow and nearly falling ar*e over t*t. All good fun though. Then Monday we took ourselves into Innsbruck and saw the famous Golden Roof - although I have no idea what the story is behind it. Tuesday we went on an excursion to Neuschwanstein Castle (the Disney fairytale castle) which brought back my childhood memories. Wednesday we chilled and then Thursday we went swimming twice - once at the local leisure centre and then later on at the pool in our hotel. Friday morning we left Seefeld early and took the train to Salzburg and did the Sound of Music tour (the whole point of going to Austria) and stayed in the city for the evening and then did a little shopping on Saturday before leaving to come home.
If we ever decided to go back to Austria we've already decided that we'd stay in Seefeld again and possibly even the hotel because the food was d-e-licious - nearly every night we had 5 course meals and one night it was even six courses! The quality of the food was excellent - one night we had daffy (duck) and most nights Ria had fish and that was cooked to perfection. Sorry but I can't help going on about the food - we're now back and having one main meal just isn't enough for us at the moment - we ate like queens!
And now it's back to normal, boring working life! It's not too bad though - I'm enjoying the work that I'm doing and the time just seems to fly by. This weekend I'm off to Fareham to spend the weekend with Ria and then on the Sunday she's driving us back to mine as she's officially moving in as from Sunday so it'll be far much easier, convenient and cheaper to see each other.
I hope that my life becomes a little more interesting soon coz otherwise my blogs which were every few days will become every few weeks.... but saying that it won'tbe long til me 'n' Ria will be jetting off around the world... roll on August 31st-ish!
