urizen husband. this will take some getting used to.
we've seen some pictures, courtesy of friends on facebook, but not yet the official photographer ones, which we expect some time this week.
the honeymoon was lovely. we went to edinburgh for a few days of tromping around and looking at the sites, as well as being overloaded with theatre, as the fringe festival was on. we saw a couple of plays each day, plus the odd comedy and street performers. quality was varied - worst Hamlet ever, but The Hound of the Baskervilles and Free Outgoing (drama set in Indian), were both fantastic in entirely different ways. Apocalypse the Musical and Bouncy Castle Dracula were middling but fun, much as you might expect from the titles, as was the 74-year old comedienne who started her act with a strip tease. and the best street performer by far was the man juggling knives and a flaming brand, at one point whilst blindfolded, atop a 3-metre unicycle.
we both agreed that we'd love to go back to the festival another yearm if we can manage to arrange it, and possibly encourage other to join us. we shall see.
Devon was lovely and relaxing. Buckland house was gorgeous as ever, and full of our friends. there were various day trips, including the Eden Project and the aquarium in Plymouth, as well as shorter treks to exciting vistas like the Gnome Reserve, and sojourns to the bustling metropolis that is Okehampton (that is, the nearest town of any actual size - it even has a cinema, albeit a single screen one). and lots of relaxing and gaming (both board- and role-playing).
returned yesterday and spent most of the afternoon tidying the carnage that has filled the house since the wedding (gifts and general stuff). very glad of tomorrow's bank holiday, as it gives an extra day to reacclimatize ourselves before returning to work on Tuesday. I have a short week this week (3 days), then start working full time on Monday. eep!
