This cat has randomly decided he owns our garden, and he is now guarding it from other cats with its dear little life. He sits on this wall for hours on end, and seems to have a special fascination for snails sliming about on the other side of it. He also keeps track of all [...]

Weekend
Posted in Books, Crafts, Wheather on July 30, 2007 | 7 Comments »
It’s been a rather busy weekend. Both Kat and myself have been working hard on two totally independent secret projects, the results of which we can’t discuss here yet, if ever…duhm duhm duuuuhm! (that’s mysterious film music, in case you are wondering!)
Mysterious, eh?
Apart from that, we’ve watched our new favourite show “DanceX” on [...]

This is what happened yesterday:
1. my Harry Potter arrived! It was at the post office, and Kat went to pick it up for me! Yay! I quickly read the first chapter and I’m just amazed that J.K. Rowling seems to be able to just keep the fantastic writing up, even under all that pressure of [...]

Kat is going to (hopefully -all fingers crossed – ) return home tomorrow. I so can’t wait.
But for tonight I’m still by myself, and for lack of having anything else to do, and due to the fact that Harry Potter isn’t out yet, I’m reading the internets instead.
One of the places I love to visit [...]

I rollerskated to work clients today! I had to be in a meeting this morning in a little village about 5 kilometers from my house, so this morning when I woke up, I got the silly idea to just rollerskate to it. And I got there in time too! Yay!
Now, if I can find someone [...]

This post will say “by Kat”, but it’s by Loe really. I’m writing from Kat’s computer, because I’m in Birmingham!
Yay!
This is just a tiny update, because I’m expected in the living room to watch Neighbours with my lovely. She did really well for her essay, btw! We went to collect her grade yesterday and it [...]

I was just cleaning files away from my computer, and I came accross these two little stories that I once translated for Kat. They are written by Toon Tellegen, a Dutch author who mainly writes children’s stories about animals. They are so lovely though. I thought I’d share these two with everyone reading this blog.

Due to a small forest fire next to the railway track between Ede and Arnhem, Kat missed her flight last wednesday and had to reschedule it for monday (koninginnedag!), missing out on a couple of her revision classes and basically arriving in Birmingham just in time for her exams.
She’s been trying to get all her [...]
