London by the Sea


Hi all

Hope you've been keeping well. We've had some brighter weather since the last post, so have had fun getting out and about. Yesterday we spent a day by the seaside in Brighton. We sat on the pebble beach

(picture of Richard on said beach on right), and had some fun at Brighton Pier, looking at all the rides & having a go at some of the skill testers (with no luck unfortuately! See pic of Richard on left trying to win a Simpsons doll).

We also went to see the Grand Pavilion, and while we were there, were lucky enough to see a concert band in the gardens. We pulled out our picnic blanket & enjoyed the sun, the gardens and the lovely music for most of the afternoon. Long enough for my nose to turn pink :P (See pic of the pavilion on the right - strange to see such architecture in Brighton - looks similar to a lot of the pic's we took in Turkey!).

On Friday we went to the PwC Summer Ball which was fun. Lucky for me, my dress arrived in time for the ball - Mum posted it from Brisbane a week earlier for me (thanks Mum!) which meant it arrived just in time for the ball. The ball was fun, good food, nice venue (the brewery in London) & they had some arcade games where you're racing on ski's through trecherous terraine. Unfortunately when I had a go I managed to crash into most of the obstacles on the course :P (Pic of me on the left in full concentration trying to ski! Pic of us on the right in our dinner wear - Richard looking very spiffy in dinner suit & bowtie :) although I think there's a thumbprint in the middle - Sorry!)

Anyway, I've finally uploaded all of our photos to date! I've also updated all of our photos on our website (au.photos.yahoo.com/richncorryn) so if you're particularly interested in checking out all of the photos, have a look there for the full album of them!

Keep well & happy :)
