Hi both. Last day before leave. I’m wiped 😂 Won’t be going anywhere, but catching up with people as Kerstin is away as well. But deliberately not a lot happening! Love you both, Dad

Hi both, Off to Hamburg tomorrow for a long weekend. It’s Kerstin’s friends 50th. Nice to have a bit of a break and walk around Hamburg in between social bits. Looking forward to it. Just one day to get through! Love you both x

Hi both, So this week has been quite a bit of sorting two things I should have done ages ago. Car and rest of my flooring. My car is about to go, so found a pretty cheap to run car to switch to. Will be quite a bit of cost for the next three years, but more manageable then previous ways. Not the car I actually want, but it will do 😉 Then flooring. This is a huge pain as it means moving everything out of the bedroom and my rammed study. But getting rid of the last bit of mank

Hi both, Hope getting back to school wasn’t too much of a jolt. Work has finally calmed down and got into a rhythm so that feels good. Also given me a chance to look at the long list of stuff I can now focus on due to being in a job I like and is not at “crunch”. Feels good to be honest 😊. Love you both, Dad x

Hi both, So coming up to four years since I have seen you last. Still feels awful, and wished I got to see you. Love you both so much. Whatever you are doing, I’m sure I would be proud of you 😊 Work is calming down. Long weekend in a country hut with Kerstin is just the tonic I need after a busy, intense period. Love you both, Matt

Hi both, So today is the end of the intense period at work. Two months of stuff. Quite satisfying in what’s been achieved, but glad for a slower tempo. Me and Kerstin are off to see the Producers tomorrow as well. Been aaaaagggggeeeessss since I have seen a musical in the west end, so really looking forward to it. Then next weekend away up in Spalding for basically chilling. Can’t wait. Love you both, Dad x

Hi Both, Hope the last week before Easter isn’t a grind. As expected, my work is currently, hence nothing much to add. I am going to a nice country cottage over Easter weekend, so think things will be a bit more normal after that. Love you both, Dad x

Hi both, Miss you like crazy today. Love Dad.

Hi both, Gosh my life is boring at the moment. Only thing to say is that I had to rebook a holiday with Kerstin as the original cottage we booked collapsed 😬 Hope you both enjoying the gradually appearing sunshine. Love you both, Dad x

Hi both, My life remains very dull. Lots on at this work, and when I do get some spare time, learning about a new card game and playing that against people. At least I get to book a weekend break away with Kerstin. Our first choice alas got destroyed due to recent storm damage (eek!). Hope you are enjoying half term, love you both. Dad x

Hi both, All work and no play makes Dad write a boring update 😉 Hope you are all ok and at least holding out till half term Love you both, Dad x

Hi both, So finished the first week of my job for the next 3 months. Going well but tiring as not a lot of time to get stuff done! Also going to see one of my favourite bands, Jinjer, so looking forward to that. Love you both, Dad x

Hi both, Last week at St Mungo’s. What a relief! 3 months is long to wait to leave somewhere. Hope the gloom and grey are not bringing you down. Even the snow was short lived 😔 Thank you both for you lovey notes. Hope you get my response back Josh, and loved the picture Charlotte. Love you both, Dad x

Hi both, So my new years was spent ill. To be fair I am usually want to be at home anyway, but would rather not be ill. Kerstin was in Hamburg, and if I knew how much leave I would have to use up, could have stayed there anyway. But glad I didn’t as I would have been ill. Hope you both had a fab new years, and that going back to school hasn’t been too hard. Love you both, Dad
