Hello world! Louis here. Yes, Harry and I are now doing this blog thingy together. He’d kept it a secret from me, the little minx, but I caught him out last week and sat on him until he agreed I could do it with him. Alright, that’s not exactly how it happened, but I’m a sucker for the dramatics as you’ll no doubt discover. So, from here on I’ll be writing most of these posts and Harry will focus on making them beautiful with his gorgeous photography. How talented is my boyfriend?
In case I was being too subtle there, go back and read that last sentence again… Yes, young Harold and I are now officially together. (Gives a satisfied sigh.) And all it took was being isolated on an island for two weeks and a broken bar heater to force us into sharing a bed. But based on the comments on Harry’s last post it seems that some of you may have suspected that’s where we’d ended up, so I figured why not shout it out to the world!
Right. What have we been up to? Uhm… we’ve been keeping ourselves busy indoors (stop it right now, get your minds out of the gutter!) while we wait for small breaks in the weather that allow us to tend to things outside. They’ve been few and far between, but we’ve made the most of them when they present themselves. I’ve finished the maintenance on the lighthouse and Harry has completed the refit of the boards on the verandah. Next up I’ll be doing a swap out of the solar panels and Haz will start the extension on the storage unit. They’re both huge jobs and will take us each the better part of the next month given how limited our working windows are.
I have a special date night planned for us once we get an evening with clear skies but don’t tell Haz! I’ll report back next time to let you all know how it went. Now, how does he sign these things off…?
Lots of love from the arse end of the Earth!
No Going Back
