And we're back..

Well as the bloke out of Stain'd once said, "It's been a while", but unlike the bloke from Stain'd I'm not a morose baldy bastard whinging about everything.  I have a full head of hair.

Welcome back one and all, welcome to a new post, on a new day..
It's taken me a while to get back into the swing of reality after the chaos leading up to and including the wedding and the fun-packed honeymoon, I must admit.  It's an odd feeling now not having anything major on the horizon to plan for (as for the previous twelve months we were either waiting for Kirstyn or the wedding to arrive - most of the time, both!).  I must admit the thought of a couple of weeks of routine, peace and quiet sound pretty damn good right now.

Allow me to summarise my points this morning as opposed to me typing out a long rant.

Disneyland Paris was fantastic!
I can honestly recommend this to everyone (whether you have kids or not, to be honest I could have run riot in there).  The level of service there is phenomenal too, you get treated so well (although the place is in France it seems to have a very strong American service industry customer relations ethic).  Some great rides (Star Tours - which I've wanted to go on since I was a kid, Armageddon (shit film, surprisingly good special effects tour), Space Mountain 2, The Rock And Rollercoaster (Avec Aerosmith), etc, etc... Will get some photo's up soon (especially of Café Mickey, a top class restaurant where Disney characters come round and meet and greet you - muchos fun!).

My fave new game - Star Wars Lego II: The Original Trilogy.
Just brilliant.  A wicked sense of humour, a wonderful homage to the original Star Wars trilogy (and Han Solo shoots first in the cut scenes!!), some tricky puzzles and a really good blaster to.  If it's out on your console - get it!!

Funniest thing in the last seven days:  David Bowie on Extras.  I wept with laughter.

Will write more soon.. head's still a wee bit befrazzled at the moment!

Diolch yn fawr

Just a quick posting today (as most of today is being spent getting ready to go and see Mickey Mouse in Paris tomorrow), but just wanted to say a big thank you to all of the friends and family that came to the wedding on Saturday.

Hope everyone who came along had a great time, it all passed very quickly for Liz and I (so forgive me if I didn't get to speak to you at length during the day), particularly as we didn't really get a moment to spare until after dinner (as the photographer held us hostage for most of the time immediately after the ceremony).

However it was great to see so many people made the long journey into the hills and were there to see the day..

..and now I'm an old married man. Be-jesus!!

Posts around here are going to be fairly slim over the next seven days, as I doubt there'll be an internet café in the "House of Mouse".. but I'll be back next week. Hopefully should have some piccies by then too.

Catch y'all later

9 Days and counting..

..and finally the Honeymoon is booked (hurrah!)
Although booking it meant handing over a huge amount of money to Mickey Mouse and surprisingly he wouldn't take Mickey Mouse money, demanding Pounds Sterling instead, the dirty rat.  Should be a wicked week though, am really looking forward to it (yeah, it's for kids, but I've not exactly grown up yet, so I'll have a blast).

Also ambled down to the Suit Hire Company yesterday to pick up my suit (well, d'uh, I didn't go there to purchase fresh fruit and vegetables now did I?).  As part of this, you try it on (as in you wear the suit, you don't try and run out of there without paying the bill) to ensure that they haven't given you the wrong stuff - and I have to say it's quite a fetching ensemble.  Trouble is the fitting rooms upstairs were like a furnace, I swear it must have been about 28 degrees Celsius up there, and when you're wearing a shirt, tie, waistcoat and heavy woollen jacket you certainly feel the heat I tell thee!!

Now just the speech to write really..
