I was a little premature with my last post.

The next [and hopefully final] addition goes thusly:

I never expected to find myself vomiting blood.

*sigh*

I've just got back from hospital, having had the full german ambulance treatment on wednesday night. A day and a half of blood tests, monitoring and an endoscopy later, I apparently don't have any bleeding in my throat or any bleeding ulcers, but I do have a minor hernia, and can add antacids to my daily menu for the foreseeable future.

Huh.  This also explains all the belching.

I've finally got round to uploading some of my photos from my recent trip back home to England.

First, my cousin Andrew's wedding.  I know family weddings aren't all that interesting to outsiders, but I managed to get a wonderfully, embarrassingly bad picture of the bride and groom:


And here's how they're meant to be looking!


This is also the law of conservation of [my name] in action.  One of my cousins (Andrew's sister in fact) is another Kath.  She just married out of the surname last year, only to have Kate marry into it!  I suppose I shouldn't find it too surprising really - we're all more or less the same age, and Katherine was the most popular girls name the year I was born, and certainly high up for a few years either side as well.
