OK, Catch up time!

Wow, just realised its 2 months since i wrote on here so better do a bit of catching up. So last time I wrote it was october 23rd and its now december 28th! Bloody hell well ill just go for the important stuff! Lets start off with the business! Wont be too long tonight as i am very tired but here goes!

SiMILE Media Solutions

Well SiMILE is going pretty well still we are working toward the naval documentary. The TV studio crewing is going well and from next month we are charging for the service through the university. We are also negotiating the coverage of graduation for the university which will make lots of work for us going into the summer. We also recently got awarded new hardware by the university so will be moving into the office properly at the beginning of january as we can work from there once the machines are delivered. So watch this space as we slowly move in, bringing with it new business telephone numbers and everything!

Other Stuff

In other stuff I have been really busy outside of the business aswell. Drama socoety have managed to rope me into a show, so i am now Pepe in West Side Story, still only 4 lines and some choral singing so not too bad! Also have had some awesome night out with the drama society aswell including ABC night, with nintendo characters as our theme (I was a controller!) - I am on the far left

I also hosted a karaoke party for drama aswell which was amazingly cool and went down so well that more are in the works.

 

Another, rather surprising development which happened end of novemeber has been the change in relationship status! Long story short I found out someone i knew from the bus i used to take to and from school is at Keele university in her final year as a physiotherapist. Seeing as keele is only about 25 mins from stafford we decided to meet up for a coffee and a reminisce, things have since moved on from that first fateful afternoon and kate is now my girlfriend, there is a much longer version of the story but that is very very long and frankly i cant be bothered to write it all here but to keep people content here is a picture of the two of us taken at my cocktail party that i hosted last night (more about that in a moment!)

 

And christmas.....cant finish the blog post without christmas! Well its been an interesting one, Dads been in hospital with a dodgy foot which has meant a few changes from the norm but has still been alll good, we had lunch at the gateway hotel in nottingham on xmas day which was awesome, even had a visit from santa on the big xmas lunch day, other festive holiday activities have included taking mums godson, so technically my godbrother, who is 5, to see reindeer at a local garden centre, and the obligatory xmas shopping. Hosted a cocktail party last night which was exceedingly cool also.

 

But i feel i am rambling a bit so i will sign off now, coming soon is my new years party so a new update will probably follow after that!

 

till next time!
