Second Post
Ok, so its not a very imaginitive title, but whatever happened to the 'second post' anyway? That was always a great excuse for not having any valentines cards!
So anyway, Adam and I have spent a very pleasant afternoon over at Mark and Heidi's house, just generally playing with Caleb and Elodie, who are both gorgeous! I think my favourite activity of the afternoon was the fuzzy felt, in particular Adam's very odd octopus (Heidi may even have a photo to post if you fancy a trip over to her blog). It turns out I am not very good at drawing. Caleb has got one of those magic slate type things, and likes to ask people to draw on it. Now I never thought I was particularly good at art, but when a shark turns out looking like an aeroplane, and Darth Vader looks more like a ghost from pacman, I think its time to put the pencil down!
Other than that, today has been spent finishing off a few wedding invitations (yes, if you didn't know, Adam and I are currently in the middle of planning our wedding, you should probably expect some more wedding-related items in the future!), trying to sort out a new phone for Ad, as his old one gave up the ghost yesterday, a small amount of gardening (not me!) and watching Top Gear. I actually really like that programme. I feel that I shouldn't like it, being a girl and not one who is particularly into cars, but there is something strangely compelling about a giant game of conkers with caravans!
Now I wouldn't expect 2 post in a day again any time soon, I have a ridiculously busy week at work coming up, can feel a few very long days on the horizon, so this place will either become lost in the ether like so many other diary type things I have attempted to keep in the past, or a place for venting some anger. You have been warned!

Hooray, you have a blog! You're blatantly going to keep it up Mim, and write masses and masses each day; you know you will ;)

I missed Top Gear, we were watching The Pianist - will have to catch the repeat! I like it too, but I can file it under 'professional development' not 'entertainment'!

How many Porsche Boxsters do you actually sell then?!
I have been resisting the urge to start a blog for a while, but it seems the time has come to give in!

Ah, he will soon, he's already bemoaning the fact that he feels left out!!

Of course you know what *would* be funny, if Dad started blogging. Unlikely, I guess, but I reckon he'd make a good blogger, if he wanted to!
