Cooking, Whroo & Life in General

Been up to all sorts of bits & pieces. Theo constructed this pot belly stove of sorts from an old gas bottle & it now resides in the shed, complete with chimney thru the roof. It is really very nice and warm in there with the stove going. Theo works on stuff & I sit in a chair and read a book:)

And here is my new PINK kitchen baby, while Theo demonstrates the tastiness of things it helps to make:). It was a wedding present from my Dad & Sharon. 

This was all part of several recent cooking frenzies ;) 

All very belly- and freezer-filling.

And here's Ainsley and Simon, at their recent wedding :) 

And here's Theo & I, too :) 

Now Whroo. Always entertaining. With our broken handbrake, we had to resort to wedging rocks under the back car tyres;)

Someone suddenly decided the main mine was unsafe & decided to fence it off. Sort of.

There was some drama when a young man and three females (two of them from The City) went missing down a mine shaft for two hours. A large crowd of friends and family gathered atop the shaft's dark maw, two brave would-be rescuers went down the rope after them (yes, one of them was Theo), calls to the SES were narrowly averted, someone produced climbing gear and the would-be explorers were found returning safe & sound - although they apparently needed some help getting out of there. There were rumours of hanky panky, amongst the youngsters, but I think it unlikely considering the people involved ;)

Here's the trio of girls, and one of the rescuers, and the procession back home :).

wedding been and gone

We don't have any of our own photos yet (being still on our honeymoon and all) but here's a link to the photos our photographer put up :)

Testing venues & working hard

We went to take some photos of a wedding venue, to see what it all looked like from behind a camera :)

Here's Theo being unintentionally very artistic (see me floating around in his sunglasses' reflection?)

And this is the view of Theo's work, from his front porch (square thing in middle of picture). He rang me from work and told me to wave in his direction, as he was jumping round on top of the building. My mother in law to be and my little sister were also waving and we got his yellow Spongebob towel and waved it around as a sort of big yellow beacon. He was this little moving shape on the blop thing on top of the building. So we do get to see each other while he's working, after all.
