Dorset

We went to Dorset for 1 night before our trip was cut short by a bad case of the English cold! We both became very unwell and decided to come back home after one day. While it lasted it was great. Dorset is gorgeous - a hidden secret without many tourists. We stayed in a village called Beaminster at the place below called Pickwicks of Beaminster. We joined in a curry and charity quiz night but we came last!




Lyme Regis - famous village on the Lyme Bay, it was glorious sunshine but very cold.

Gorgeous English countryside on the southern coast of The Isle of Wight.

Isle of Wight

We are now living and working on The Isle of Wight which is off the south coast of England. To get here you catch a ferry from Portsmouth. Below is our house "Daisy Cottage'', it is very nice inside - a real house with spare bedroom etc and a huge conservatory which gets really warm on sunny days. Our house is about a 5 minute walk from the vet clinic where we are working.




Below are some pictures taken on the southern coast of the Isle of Wight. The countryside on the island is very attractive, especially down on the southern side. Althought the island isn't very big, there are no major roads and getting around takes a long time in bad traffic!

The Greatest Photo Ever


When we visited Pisa, there was only one thing i wanted; A photo of me holding the leaning tower up. Everyone was doing it, and I wanted one just the same...This is what Liv produced, and it is a testament to her brilliant photographic skills.

The Moment You've all Been Waiting For

Here are some photos of Liv's engagement ring. We recently had it resized in London as Liv had fat fingers in florence, and when we returned to the UK the ring didn't fit any more.
