Today I joined up at Alton climbing center, it is a little drive from
basingstoke but well worth the trip.

This is the start now of my heathy phase, no more takeaway, just good
food! And

Names, names & more names

I have started compiling Vicky & leons guest list. Now they have the names down it is so much easyer. Today I spent a couple of hours designing the invite and direction guide. I think it look quite nice ,but they still have to see it.

Hopefully they will like it and we can get them printed up and given out by the beginning of Feb.

Tony has still not sent thought the menu yet, so really don't want to do that till we get the venue and food boxed off.

I will have to work out a timeline and critical path next!

Vicki's Birthday

Vicki's Birthday, originally uploaded by doyleoliver.

I when back to MIlton Keynes to give Vicki her birthday present, I decided to hang around for her birthday meal on Tuesday evening rather than heading back to Camberley.

Also in the conversation I offered to organise Leon & hers wedding! Will I regret this ? We will see!

I have borowed dads 50mm lens, It is only 1.8f So I can't wait to take some nice low ligth leve shots.

Also the the dept of field i really small so love to get that blury background to pics!

Showing dad blogging!

 While at home I showed dad how my blogging works and how easy it is to setup and publish your blog. I think it would be great for him to show if his photos!

Hitting the Ice

After a nursing a hangover for most of Wednesday, Thursday we had a social management night out to the ice rink to see everbodies silky ice skills. Lee  faired the best (but he was a ex ice hockey player), I did not do so bad and did not fall once, on the other hand Chris our head doorman, could hardly stand on the ice and only did one lap holding on the edge all the way!

Crew trip

 Tonight was the crew area party, so we all when up to windsor to have a night out. It was really good to see all the old faces and to catch up. The drinks started pouring in and fun was had by all. It ended up with a area "paper, scissors, stone" match which if i can remember Jason at Windsor won!

Wii fun

With all these nights off, (which I am just getting used to) mark and I took the Wii for 18 holes of golf. Struggling  at first I soon picked it up and was getting birdies in no time. 

Mark still beat me, the first 9 by 12 shots but the second only by 2. For my first Wii attempt I thought this was pretty good!

Anna Spanners B'day

With a rare Saturday night off, I headed down to Southampton for a night off. It was Anna's birthday so everybody was out.

We when to the orange rooms, which is a lot bigger than I remember!

With turfing out time closing near we headed to the local curry house to finish the night off.

A great time was had by all and I did not have a major hangover the next day witch was nice!

Just as the snow was suposed to hit today, I was perpaired. but it was never needed. I wore it home and I was so hot in the car. I am sure that this jacket will keeep me warm for ages to come.
