There was a bit of a mini-reunion going on for Steve Clark's 40th birthday at St. John restaurant in London over the weekend. It was great to see the whole family of Tom & Val, with Steve and Andy down and it also ended up as a mini-reunion for some ex pupils from Farringdon School in Sunderland (although it wasn't a sports college then).
Shellie Dormand and Jan Smith where there (6 husbands on between them, only joking) along with Steve, me and Duncan. Also good to see John and Amanda from Steve's uni house in Belsize Park all those years ago! It was a fantastic night and we never stopped laughing.
St. John restaurant was different and very nice. A huge plate of langoustine came as a starter and then we had suckling pig and probably turbot for the main courses. I suspect we were very, very loud. Even louder when Andy came in screaming with joy over the England rugby score!
Photos of Steve's birthday and Farra kids behaving badly. I don't have the photos of Steve and the girls reading Chaucer at 4am in their underpants, but best that I don't or else they will be up on the Net. Champagne at The Hoxton, ouch!
Look at how we compare 20 years on. Shellie hasn't changed much although I did spot something, as you can see in the photo above.
I have now added a write-up in the travel section on our recent holiday to Bergerac region of France. We actually stayed in a rented house called Acabanes near a village of Thenac.
I am just going to see if I can get any kind of placing for the phrase web design dorset onto the yahoo search pages. Some local web development company seems to have thrown down the gauntlet by saying they have been number on on the results for over 9 months.

Back from a weeks holiday in France. Stayed near Bergerac and it was all too easy really. Fly from Southampton airport, pick up a hire car and then a short drive to a huge farmhouse.
With all the good wine and food out there it was so annoying to come back to over 3000 e-mails and most of it spam!
