Start June.....


One more photo - commuting via seaplane - the only way to get around...
Also, just a note to say that my wife is now a stunning brunette - Holly doesn't know what's going on.

OD here - you've probably already received an email about my 60km walk in August in aid of Cancer Research. To those that have already donated many thanks. To those who opened the email and have forgotten about it, this is a reminder. To those of you that don't know quite what I'm on about please click to find out more. I'm almost half way to reaching my required target of $2,500 so please dig deep......

More May






More photos really - some more from the trip with Iain and Sara, and general photos from around and about...

Early May






Well, it's been an interesting month - as I'm sure you're all aware, we've managed to buy a house, but we don't get to move in until the end of July. Until then, we're still living out of a suitcase (except OD who has every single item of clothing - strange how every box we took out storage contained her clothes........).
Life post-looking-for-houses has been lots of fun, and we've regained our weekends - good-bye to looking around badly decorated houses in north Van, and hello to bouldering at Squamish - a good swap.
Unfortunately, we need to move out of our bat-cave for the month of July - probably a good thing really, as the unremitting pinkness of it is starting to get to us (though I think Joe would like it...) - it might start to have a deleterious effect on Hols if she thinks she's growing up in a pink Barbie world.....
Bunch of photos here (and probably a few above as well) - we've had loads of visitors recently, and it's been great to see everybody - first the Brackens where we had a great w'end in Whistler; then the Gibbons/Zancanaro team (no photos unfortunately), and finally the Wright-Barker combo - we had a Rambo experience in the interior - splendid.
