Moving Day and first post!

Welcome to our blog. It seems only polite that we introduce ourselves and explain why we've decided to start a blog *gasp* as a couple!!

You'd be forgiven for being a little dubious about a couples blog but stick with us; we're new to this too so let's agree to a first date and see how we get on.


Creature comforts


It's JJ writing this first little post but Jim is here in all his "christmas jumper finery" lounging on the one chair that we now own (have borrowed) and our internet has JUST been connected hence tonight we're eagerly writing our difficult first post.



Our amazing friends buy the most brilliant cards


We moved into our new/first house together 2 weeks ago and are still getting to grips with all that it entails. We don't have much money (we spent it on fees/credit reports), we have essentially no furniture (what we do have is borrowed), we are surrounded by boxes and don't have a TV BUT what we do have we love and it makes our "Haus Sweet Haus".


The theme for this room is "Cardboard creativity"




The only comparison I can make is I imagine we have the similar feeling of when you pass your driving test but have never driven on the motorway or when you have a baby and take it home despite never changing a nappy before... We're now living in a house and haven't got a clue what we're doing!


As our parents, friends, colleagues and strangers have told us... That's how everyone starts out! (Apparently!)




It was a pleasure to meet you and would love to see you again ;)

JJ (and Jim)
