There isn’t a more appropriate phrase in my head to sum up the end of this blog. For the time has come for Hoveactually to be packed up in a box and put on the top shelf of my wardrobe (along with other boxes of memories, letters and the like). It’s been fun but there is a new ship to be sailed and I’m getting ready for that. I no longer live in Hove for a start and it’s about time I acknowledged that. This blog feels very specific to a time and era, a UCCF Hoveactually kind of an era, and it’s time to be off to pastures new. Time to acknowledge the change.
So much has happened in the last year that it feels odd to carry on with this blog. It seems to mark a very definite period of my life that is coming to an end. I am embarking on a different path and want to reflect that. Life looks very different and whilst I remain Kath the context of being Kath has shifted a little. I’m getting married in 3 months time (exactly to the day) and that has rocked my world (in both senses of that phrase). I’m still working out what that means in my head and I guess switching blogs is a minor part of that process.
I’m still going to write, still going to blog, in a once a week way, over at thepensive. I love writing and having a space somewhere to express thoughts, ideas and pretty things I like. That’s not going to change. The context has. But dear reader, the one that is left after the neglect this blog has suffered over the last 6 months, I invite you to join me in this new context. Come along for the ride.
So there you go. It’s been a blast. See you around.
Enjoyed it while it lasted 🙂 Exciting times ahead.
So there I was, sat reading about the termination of Hove Actually – which I frequented from time to time & then just mixed in with it are the words “I’m getting married”. Kath – big, big congratulations! So many questions – who to? how did you meet? what are you up to now? etc
Big big congratulations & sad to see the end of this chapter of blogging, but looking forward to whatever the future may hold!
