So on the 12th September, Marie and I tied the knot and started out our married life. We held the ceremony near to our home town of Guildford, UK – of course in traditional fashion the bride was late (15 minutes) but other than that the day went without a hitch. We had a great time and hope all our friends did too.

On Sunday we jetted off to Greece for a two week sailing Flotilla around the South Ionian sea. Basically it’s follow my leader with about 12 yachts (32 foot+) – we’re told where to go each day and what time to get in to port by, sail for the day and then we have a siesta before we go out for dinner and the odd drink or too! It was simply amazing and the people we spent the two weeks were so diverse, for example – Amy Winehouse’s former PA, the Global Marketing Manager of Nokia…and of course us!

So now we’re getting back to normal reality and appreciating the finer details of life – like putting toilet paper down the loo (this is a big no no in Greece!).
