The missus and I are celebrating our first wedding anniversary today – yes, already! I look on the past year, and marvel at just how quickly it has whizzed past.
Memories
Today is an opportunity to reflect on what a truly a magical day for both of us and our families. We got married at St Paul’s Church, Newbridge, followed by a wedding reception and evening reception at the Maes Manor Hotel in Blackwood. You can see the post I made just after the wedding here.

A year gone by
Since getting hitched, we have been busy bees. After jetting off to Kenya on honeymoon, we returned to the UK and I resumed my training contract at RAD / South West London Law Centres while Rachel started her MSc in Deaf Studies at Bristol University. In January, I began a secondment at Hugh James Solicitors for five months.
In May, I qualified as a solicitor and was admitted to the roll on 1 June. The missus and I attended, together with my mum, an Admissions Ceremony on 23 July. I continue to work at RAD as a Solicitor and Legal Services Supervisor.
Rachel has more or less finished her assignments for her MSc, and now has to do her dissertation. Speaking of which, I have to do my dissertation for my LLM Law of Employment Relations by December.
We jetted off to Gran Canaria for a week in March, and we are very much looking forward to Christmas this year in Tenerife, with the in-laws.
Wonder what the next year will bring!
