The most beautiful man I've ever seen.

I knew it was hot last night! Turns out it was the hottest night we've had in 12 years...yeah...the temperature. So there you go, even down by the water you need to add to the sea breeze with a fan every 12 years or so.

"Divine providence arranges our lives in light of true happiness as our end, because God is good and loving. This does not necessarily include happiness in the shallow sense. In fact, to be truely happy, we need to be deprived of much happiness in the shallow sense. For true happiness requires wisdom, and wisdom requires suffering. As Rabbi Abraham Heschel says so simply " The man who has not suffered, what can he possible know, anyway?"

(Handbook of Christian Apologetics, pp.141, P Kreeft & R.K. Tacelli, 1994)

One should always have some flowers at home...even if it's from that lowered branch hanging over the path on your way home (and you look like a fool caught twisting it off at the stem which is unbelievably hard to break off but you keep twisting cos otherwise you've wasted a flower and surely it'll break off in the next twist... how embarrassing. Ah so what...it's on public land..right? :))

The days following Christmas

A trot down to Bally...


Felicity's beloved wedding photo's featuring her husband's amazing chizled cheek bones that could double for a Emporio Armani magazine ad.


3 days after Christmas and the party continues with the same crowd...



Looking out at/admiring our Christmas lights with Champagne in hand...




Our first Christmas tree.

For my brother James leaving OS for a couple of years...I'll miss you sooo much. You're the best little bro in the world xxx


Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes

They say Spain is pretty though I've never been Well Daniel says it's the best place that he's ever seen Oh and he should know, he's been there enough Lord I miss Daniel, oh I miss him so much

Daniel my brother you are older than me Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal Your eyes have died but you see more than I Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky

Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes Oh God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes

-Elton John
