Hello and welcome!
Here you will find updates on my bizarre choice to enrol at a Chinese Martial Arts Academy to learn how to do what they do, complete with detailed descriptions and photographic accounts.Hopefully these will be more of crazy Kungfu style moves and less of limbs protruding at unnatural angles.

The faint-hearted need not venture any further.
Enjoy!
Love from the curly-hurred girl

Gosh! so much to read... so little time (well I say that in case work colleague read this). I love reading your Blog, I feel sooooooooo relax each time and envious of all that adventure when all I do is work, eat, sleep (not as much as I'd hope) and look after master Antoine who is a hand full = trust me. Life at work is v boring and I would love to have you back to hear all these adventure during work time... it would be fab. Enjoy every last minute there. When are you back? Take care. Bx

loving the photos, looking forward to the update :D I said I'd email you, and I will, but internet access is more limited than yours at the moment, so it might be a while! Much love, miss you greatly - Mum and bros send their love too, as does Dan. And probably Sam. Basically, there's a whole lotta love coming your way. Deal with it.

Hi Nat! How are you??!!! Loving the stretching photos - ouch!! I can barely reach down to do my shoes up any more - am 5 months pregnant with a little boy (well, gigantic boy given the size of my bump!). Glad you're having a great time - look forward to reading the next blog and finding out about your latest adventures. Very jealous of all the fun your having (less jealous about the hard work and pain!).Take care hon,Liz xx
