Visit to Arundel

Willie and I went to Arundel in West Sussex over the weekend. After walking around this beautiful town, we drove down to Littlehampton by the sea, and stopped at the Arundel Vineyards (which was closed unfortunately). We then drove back home via Shere, where we stopped for a glass of red wine and a beer. A lovely day out, and home just in time before 2 inches of snow fell. Click here for some photos

Love you longtime......

I spoilt myself the other night and made some creative sushi with a Sushi maker mum got me for Christmas. Check it out..........Wish you could taste it, Moya - you would have been proud!

Va Va Voom

Most of you that know me well would know that I've wanted a Citroen C2 since they came onto the market. Went into London last weekend and bought my new toy. She's beautiful!

Happy Birthday to ME!

I celebrated my birthday like a "true South African" this year - One Week Long!

I was spoilt rotton by my family!

On Thurday 7 Feb, on my birthday, mom and I had to go to the Italian Embassy to apply for our Shengen Visas for our holiday to Sardinia, Italy in May. (we now have the visas - valid for 6 months). We made a day of it in London. Went to see Tower Bridge from London Bridge, and went to Campden Town (which has burnt down in the meantime - sadly).

On the Friday night we went to the Victoria Theatre in Woking to see the stage production of South Pacific.

On Saturday night, Dad, Mom, Leon, Elizma, Baby Cowle, Willie and me went for a gastronomic meal a lovely pub by the canal in Woking.

I loved my birthday and all my lovely presents. Get ready, Next year it's the BIG 30!!

Henry the VIII I am, I am

"Come join me and my noble court in this fulsome medieval feast in my banqueting hall amidst the light of flickering torches. Let our minstrels, troupers and strolling players be amongst thee and entertain with riddle, story and song of love and great deeds that doth bewitch thine ears with joy."

Frieda, Johan, Willie and me celebrated Frieda and my brithdays at the Medievil Banquet at St. Katherine's Docks, next to Tower of London.

Great food and all the ceremony that accompanies a banquet at the Kings table. The evening went so fast, but was so much fun. It comes strongly recommended!

Hello World

I can't wait to meet you little person - from your cool Aunt Tania

Trip down memory Lane....

I'm feeling a bit nostalgic tonight. I was doing a bit of channel hopping on my telly tonight and came across a Music Channel screening music videos of the biggest Hits '87-'07. The memories that came flooding back.... I suddenly felt very mature (I prefer mature to old....). as they took me on a journey of my own life spanning over 2 decades. Isn't it amazing how you can associate a specific memory, place, person or even smell with a certain song. Whether its an old school crush, that first love, a moment in you favourite movie, a special memory with mom or dad, a happy time spent with a friend or whatever the reminder may be, every tune is worth it!

This is my wish for 2008 and beyond:

May the music keep playing, so it can trigger those beautiful moments in our lives that we sometimes lose in our heads.
