[guignol]

so what's that guignol doing???

i've been somewhat (well, almost completely) absent the last couple of weeks, and i think you deserve some kind of explanation...

the fact is i've moved house... and the new place needed some major freshening up... and i've been doing it all myself, painting, flooring, electricity, drapes, gardening, and of course the MOVING!

and on top of that my family has sprung a cute little puppy on me!

so all in all i've been spending more time at castorama, ikea and botanic than at work, and to top it all off we have had no internet connection at home. all that in lieu of explanation.

football hasn't been completely absent from life: we found time to go to OL-lemans, and had a great time... and since we went with another american family who didn't want to sit in the VNS we were in the 3rd row of JB, and though you can't really see the game as well, you see the players close up, it's pretty neat. especially when the did a victory samba on the retaining wall after, they danced by us only 2-3 metres away. and there was a great fireworks show too!

well, so that's what i've been up to! i'll be more present from now on, even if judging by the zero messages (i have been logging on when possible) i've received, you don't really need a mod at all!
