Updates

It’s been far too long since I’ve posted on here. Really must make an effort to post at least once a year. Somehow I manged to post nothing throughout the whole of 2008. But I have been fairly busy…

First off, Andy and I moved down to Brighton last January. We’ve been down here a year now, and I don’t regret the move one bit. The daily commute to London for work can be a bit of a pain some days, but it’s worth it to be down here at the weekends.

Last October we went on a little trip around Europe, stopping off in Lisbon, Madrid, Rome, Berlin, and Istanbul. Lisbon was pretty, if a little rough around the edges. Madrid and Rome were nice. Berlin was cold and wet. Istanbul was chaotic.

Job wise, not a lot has changed. I’m still working for Yahoo!, having survived two rounds of layoffs this year. Recessions suck!

Oh and one last thing. Andy and I are getting married this year :)
