Can you believe it's April?

Hello all.

How's your week been? Ours has been okay nothing special to natter about really. The main thing for us, especially Emma is that it's April. Em can now say she finishes work and fulfils the contract next month, which is like lifting a huge weight off her shoulders. As much as we're enjoying ourselves, being tied down by a contract has put a bit of a downer on things. More than we realised. But there's light at the end of the tunnel and we're looking forward to moving onto the next chapters in our lives. That was a little deep to start with so onto something lighter. Well actually it's not but I'm amused by it.

As mentioned last week violence in parts of Boston has escalated lately. The Mayor & Governor got together to make plans on how to curb the violence. One is to only allow people to buy one gun per month, what a brilliant idea. I just laughed, does that include bullets? Sure that will make all the difference on the black market, "Sorry dude you've already bought a gun this month". I should reiterate that we feel safe and happy in Boston. Every city has it's dodgy areas and neighbourhoods, we know where they are and stay clear. Not seen a Guardian Angel yet, which is a good thing I would be worried if we did.

Now onto lighter matters. Baseball, the season has started and the Red Sox new star, Japanese pitcher Daisuke Matsuzaka has settled in well. Playing his first competitive game yesterday, he struck out 10 of the Kansas City Royals and impressed the Red Sox nation into believing he maybe is worth the $100+ million he cost. Red Sox first home game is on Tuesday so will do our best to get down to Fenway Park and take some pictures for next weeks entry.

Last thing to say is Happy 30th Birthday to Clare.

Cheerio.
