17 July ‘26

Hi Both, You made it! The end of another year at school. Hope you both have suitable end of year celebrations planned. Main news for me is that all the paperwork has now been agreed for me to be on a fixed term contract at work. Sense of relief for me, and completes a year and a half of trying to find a settled, and good job. Glad I got there 😂. Love you both, Dad x

10th July ‘26

Hi both, Nothing much to say apart from being made permanent at work 🎉 Love you both, Dad

6th July ‘26

Hi both, So ended up yesterday going to a great exhibition about how the future could look. Really though provoking on how we will have to adapt to the damage we have done to the planet. Love you both, and hope it’s not too long a slog now till the end of term, Dad x

26th June ‘26

Hi both, Most of the week has been furniture and rugs. And that’s the last bits of household spending I am doing for a while lol. Heat has been amazing, but must admit a bit oppressive by 4pm. Hope you enjoyed your time out of school if they closed for the heat. Josh - hope you have now worked out your options for GCSE. Fingers crossed you have drama there. Love you both, Dad x

19th June ‘26

Hi both, So glad it’s now officially sunny. The cold and rain can officially go away for a long while lol. Most of this week has been furniture hunting. Now onto rug hunting next few weeks. Fun life of an adult …. Hope the count down to summer holidays is going well for you. Love you both, Dad x

8th June ‘26

Most of the week and the weekend to achieve this. Will be great once new flooring is down this week though.

22nd May ‘26

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

15 March ‘26

Hi both, So Hamburg was great, but made me realise I needed more time off than a long weekend lol. So week after next I am going to be off for a week. First time in nearly ten months so going to do a lot of sitting and a lot of doing nothing lol. Love you both, Dad x

7th May 2026

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

1st May 2026

Hi both, Super short as I have a whole load to do before the bank holiday. So just a cringey meme x Love you both, Dad

24th April ‘26

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

17th April ‘26

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

10th April ‘26

Hi both, Weekend just gone was great. Really relaxing and good to spend time with Kerstin in the countryside. Only issue being the only photo I vaguely have of the entire weekend was this one Kerstin took 😬. Hope you both had a fab time, and going back to school isn’t landing too much with a bump. Love you both, Dad xx

2nd April ‘26

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

27th March ‘26

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

20th March ‘26

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

13th March ‘26

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

6th March ‘26

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

20th Feb ‘26

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

13th Feb ‘26

Hi both, Another week of work, work, work. But it’s a great project and I am only here to early April so making the most of it. Charlotte - had your parents evening last night. So proud of not only your progress, but how you are doing it. I am so proud of you 🥳 Love you both, Dad
