Movie Club resurected!

Cover_1024Movie Club is reborn mwahahahahaaaaa! Last night, at the House of Sven, our faithful movie club reconviened after our movie apathy of 2006 to launch into new activity in 2007. Eloise, Dan, Troy, Ben, Carol, Steve and I munched, laughed and gasped our way through "Children of Men", easily my fav' film of recent years...

Random hat day

Russian_charlotteCarla_grey_hat_glasses_kissHere's a snap shot from the 24-7 International resorce centre. I stumbled in bleery eyed this morning after an early morning sofa delivery (they're so pretty!) to Charlotte's exclamation of "Snap!". Today is grey hat day, though Charlotte's is a little more excentric than mine...

Let it Snow, Let it Snow Let it Snow!

Snowy_chi_2I woke up this morning to the abrubt doo do do doooo of my 24 text alert and Charlotte's anouncement that she wasn't coming into the office and if I wanted to know why I should look out the window. I bolted upright, much to the groaning of my beloved husband and threw open the curtains to see a snowy Chichester. This is a rare sight indeed...

Freezing for fashion

Charlotte_new_247_tshirtCarla_harding_247_hoodie_2The new You See Bones, I See An Army hoodies and Ts are finally here so Charlotte (in her high pitched enthusiasm) decided there was no time like the present to get them on the 24-7 site and make a little money to support the prayer. Today would be the first day it's felt like a proper January and we're prancing around in vest tops! Check out the 24-7 site in the next few days and buy one, make my pain worth while :D xc

Birthday Boy

Harding_mustaches_smiles_1Last Friday my lovely husband turned the grand old age of 29 so in fine (newly forged) Harding tradition we took a long weekend and spread the celebrations as thickly as we could. Friday was reading in bed, eating bacon sandwhiches, window shopping in town, catching (the dissapointing) Babel at the flicks and a quiet dinner with some great friends in the evening. Saturday was Bathroom shopping (hurrah soon that sess pit will be no more) and Sunday was lunch out and a full and happy Harding open house complete with mini Ballerinas. Fabulous... Happy Birthday Drake xc

Oooh Oaky Cokey Cokey!

Ben_in_floorSteve_in_floorCurrently we have half a floor and a great pile of furniture in our lounge, dining room and kitchen. The lovely Oak flooring we purchased with a very generous Wedding gift is finally being laid and the effect is quite amazing. After a little rotten rafter replacement, and some strategising about how to lay straight planks against a crooked wall the boys have been working hard and performing wonders. Gone is the faded and stained pink carpet, hacked up floorboards and revolting crooked lino. Here is the sleek and sophisticated wood I could eat my dinner off. Hurrah!

Winter Walks

Steve_ben_sam_walkIt has been far too long since muddy walks on Sunday afternoon has been the order of the day. This weekend with a golden winter sun slicing through crisp, clean air Steve and I set out to reverse the lazy trend and drag some friends out to the wilds of Arundle...

In Conclusion

GuinessIreland was fantastic. A lot of hard work, much prayer and great chats over a pint of guiness in the local pub. I can't believe how much work we got through with the back drop of gale force winds and a turbulent but wildly beautiful Irish sea. A great picture of the 24-7 movement itself. I especially enjoyed the addition of another lady on the International team, Lisa Borden is a legend and though the guys have always been fantastic and I've never felt intimidated or exclued it's great to have a fellow female to hang out with. Especially one with such great taste in music.
