Nice, France
Little lane ways in Nice. There was a very relaxed atmosphere in this town which is very nice compared to London's hustle and bustle.

There were many different types of flowers at the Cours Saleya - flower market. This is a photo of a lemon tree in a pot.

London Marathon

As some of you may know, last April, when the London marathon ran by my house, I (Kevin) thought it looked like good fun, so I put my name in the Lottery for 2009. After completely forgetting about it, I received a notification in the post in October notifying me that I have won a place in the marathon.
Prior to this, the furthest I've ever run is about 5 miles. Four months later, I've now run 13.1 miles, which is equivelent to a 1/2 marathon. In two months, I need to double that distance. Hopefully with your support, I'll keep motivated to train and be able to complete the marathon in under 4 hours.

Please sponsor me online if you are able to, as the money goes toward cancer reasearch, which I believe to be a very worthy cause.

THANK YOU!

Snow in London!

Look at all that snow on top of our recycling bins!
We had a snow day today in London. No rail or bus services and only limited underground services. We had a lovely day in the snow at Greenwich Park where loads of children were playing in the show as hundreds of schools were closed today due to the severe weather warning. This is a photo of the street we live on. It didn't stop snowing until later on this evening.
