So I've finally made a start on recording my Italian holiday. The link is in the list if anyone is interested. I expect it will take a while and hopefully I'll get some more wedding photos before I get to that bit.
Thought I'd better get on with it tonight as I had an unexpected free evening as the pub is closed for redecoration for a few days. I have a staff meeting/party to attend there tomorrow evening and am meeting Lisa on Wednesday, with the grand reopening on Thursday evening, so it is likely to be the weekend before I next get a chance to update.

It's that update time again ...
Well I thought I’d better write something on here as it’s been so long since I’ve posted.
I kept meaning to post, but somehow never had the time. First, planning then getting ready for my holiday and the wedding in Italy , then I got rather upset with a comment that I had been left anonymously on Facebook which left me not wanting to post on the internet at all and then of course the holiday itself.
Immediately after receiving the text I posted an R.I.P. message for Hope on Facebook, followed by a comment in my status bar that I was upset over the death of Kate’s baby. Someone kindly left me an anonymous message telling me that they hoped that I wasn’t grieving over a real baby as it was crass to do so on Facebook. The tone of the message was not very pleasant. This really annoyed and upset me and left me not wanting to post anywhere for a few days. However, I have now calmed down again and am ready to inflict my views upon the world once more.
The Holiday
So on to the holiday and wedding. I have decided to start another blog (yep sorry, another one) to detail the events and as a place where I can showcase all the wedding pictures (my sister looked completely stunning as you will see) when I get them. Unfortunately I lost my camera on the last day of my holiday so I have no pictures of my own to share (and believe me I’m completely gutted about it), but I am hoping to get pictures from other attendees and hopefully should have loads to share when they all get back from their respective holidays. I will be aiming to complete the whole thing in the next few weeks, unlike the New Orleans holiday which I am aware that I haven’t touched for a zillion years. Hopefully I can finally get that finished in the next few weeks too – I just need to find time to translate my hastily written shorthand.
On the first day of my holiday, Mrs H3 text me to ask if I wanted a ticket to see My Chemical Romance who are playing at O2 in November. Bliddy stupid question if you ask me! Of course I jumped at the chance, so hopefully will soon be on a countdown to see them again. But my next countdown is for the Big Stamp and Scrapbooking Show at Alexandra Palace which Shazzer (possibly Am) and I are going to on 29th & 30th September.
Fantastic Fiction
Finally, I have been spending some time catching up on fan fiction since finishing the Harry Potter books and especially on the Sycophant Hex/Occlumency site which deals mainly with stories relating to the wonderful Severus Snape. If you’re a Snape fan (or even just a HP fan in general) I recommend you check it out as it has some wonderful stories on there. Be warned that you will end up wasting entirely too much time on there though!

Sadness
My dear friend Kate went into labour much earlier than she should have done and at 22.10pm on 23rd July 2007 she gave birth to a daughter, Hope, who only weighed 2lbs. Unfortunately, her lungs were too small to cope and she very sadly passed away after half an hour. I send my love and thoughts (a bit belatedly admittedly) to Kate and Paul.Immediately after receiving the text I posted an R.I.P. message for Hope on Facebook, followed by a comment in my status bar that I was upset over the death of Kate’s baby.
