In June I visited my brother and his family for a day at a Centre Parcs resort close to Cambridge. The area around their villa was crowded with tame wildlife, and I grabbed a few shots while I was there.

A few shots of the wedding guests, mainly by cheekily following the official photographer around, and one or two videos of the ceilidh later.

For the Easter weekend of 2008, I took the train up to visit Jenny. The weather was a bit too unsettled for long walks, but we managed to get out and about a bit in the Peak District.

In January, several of us headed over to Paris with Julie for a long weekend to celebrate her 30th birthday.

In November 2007, the Catz possey reunited to collectively celebrate entering our third decades. We rented a cottage for the weekend, and chocolate, wine and whisky ensued.

In 2007, we popped along to the Teslathon again, in search of more high voltage goodness.

In August 2007 I popped over to Gill and James’ house for a long weekend, and took a few snaps on a walk we ventured out on.

To see in 2007, a group of us descended upon Jenny’s house for a fairly typical ex-Catz group party.

Cath, Steve, Abbie and Ella visited Mum and Dad’s for Christmas 2006, and the kids occasionally stayed still long enough for me to take a photo or three.

I took my camera along to annual Cambridge fireworks display in 2006 – unfortunately without spectacular results. Fireworks photography is harder than it looks!
