I went with Rosie to see the new Indiana Jones movie, not sure what to expect. I was pretty chuffed that Indi was on the screen again and wasn’t turned off cos he wasn’t 25 and the like and yadda yadda yadda.

Hola!
Thought I’d put this video up on the blog of Rose graduating last night. I’m sure she’ll write a few words on here about it.

Anyway. Car’s are crap. They [...]

Hey,
Going to take me a few weeks to get it setup but I’m setting up this blog so Rose and I can document our travels.
A blog is necessary, because Rose is a noob with no HTML knowledge. I don’t think she’s really that prepared for this whole ‘internet’ thing yet.
