Mr and Mrs G. Mowbray

Or as Don correctly pointed out, due to my massive title land in Scotland (all one square foot of it!)

All of us on the beach at Malolo Island

We had the best time, thanks to everyone who made it over and making it such a fantastic couple of weeks for us both! - most people just get to say 'Day'!
Quite a party.

Beer Fairy's and Steve and Sarah's Wedding


Don and Gog getting amongst it in the old London Lunchtime haunts.

It's been a busy couple of days back in the UK. Beers out in London and Steve and Sarah's wedding have made the days all mould into one, but it's been fun!



Just one beer before the Fairy suit came out!



Nice G-string!
Steve and Sarah's wedding over in Braintree three days later.

The cake figures were a perfect match

The happy couple just after the ceremony. What an excellent day and evening Thanks Steve and Sarah.

G and K (well K couldn't make it over but this would have been the one with both of us ;)


G abusing the bridesmaids good nature.

Manly Pipe Band - Scottish Ball


The boys in their kilts. Gordon and Fraser both wearing their new ones. From left to right:
Sam is wearing Fraser Tartan (his Gran's family - Kiwi)
Fraser is wearing Lindsay (his surname and clan! Frase went to Watford Boys with me lives here now too)
Andrew is wearing Mclaren (a relatives family name - Andrew is a friend from work in Sydney)
Gordon is wearing MacKenzie (our family's connection to a clan).

The Manly Pipe bands annual ball was a chance to don the kilt and dust off the brogues for a bit of a dancing! Great fun and getting the ferry in Sydney in a kilt raises a few eye brows and had tourists taking pictures of Sam and I? Very Aussie for them.. not.

Where have you been?

Well K and I have bought a new house in Five Dock and have been busy sorting that out. It's great to have our own place again, we're loving it. I've also been neglecting the blog as my new found friend Facebook has been taking up so much of my spare PC time.... sorry blogger!

Kangaroo Valley Easter Camp

We (K, G, Andrew, Chrissy, Dan and Caroline) popped down to Kangaroo Valley for an Easter camping trip, and true to form, for NSW's Easter breaks, it pissed with rain on an off for the whole 3 days! Great fun though. Check out the video link on youtube below, funny ending made us laugh and laugh.... there's not much to do but drink on the campsite at night you know.

Sydney Bridge 75th Birthday

Sydney Harbour Bridge was 75 years old te day after paddies day. So we braved the hangovers after a night on the 'black stuff' and headed to the bridge walk, they closed it for the day and we, along with a couple of million other yellow hat cladded people walked over from North to South. Later there was a light show... oooohhhh here is a pic one of the guys from work took.
