Oh my poor long neglected blog

Hands up, I am very guilty of long neglecting my blog !! This is partly due to my not really doing anything crafty since Xmas, and partly because my life seems to have been turned upside down in a way, I can honestly say I never expected it to..... a man has come into my singleton life !!

I've chosen to be single for some years now, most of the time this has been my own choice, but also because of my mobility problems, and other health issues, I felt I couldn't really expect to find anyone that would accept me, nor that I had a lot to offer really. How wrong was I !!!

By pure chance I was putting a comment on a forum I use, and it got a couple of funny remarks back from one of the members on there. Humour is something dear to my heart, I couldn't, nor would I want to be in relationship that had no humour in it, I know that's not always a factor the average person looks for, but to me it's a very important one, along with love, loyalty, trust, caring, intelligence and a huge dollop of impulsiveness !! By some amazing stroke of fortune, I seem to have found all these traits in one person ..... aren't I the lucky one :o) Whats even more amazing is that he seems to find those very same in traits in my personality, very appealing too. Neither of us was actively looking for anyone, and yet we seemed to hit it off immediately. Even the distance between us, although mildly annoying doesn't seem to be too much of a problem, with the help of web cams, voice chat and British Rail lol. The rest as they say is history, and I find myself in an extremely happy relationship.

So for those of you out there, that despair of ever finding anyone..... fear not, you just never know what's around the next corner :o)

Last weekend, I had a visit from family and friends in the Midlands for a long weekend. As always, this was a hectic time, with loads of laughs. We even managed at one point to be kicked off Porthmadog beach, we weren't doing anything really bad ... just having some fun as my mate Martin tried to tell the beach warden lol. Despite the nipping wind, almost everyone went in the sea, and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The night of their arrival, unusually saw us all having a drink, my first proper drinking session in 6 yrs !! What a laugh it was too, surprisingly even though I drank almost a whole bottle of peach schnapps, I was not only still standing I was still talking sense too lol.

Anyway, I promise to try and find time to update my blog more regularly now. Here's a few photo's of some of the fun we had at Porthmadog beach before we got kicked off, and a couple of my man.
