  • Molly enjoying her favourite time of year and struggling through a snow day!

  • After spending our first Christmas together, we enjoyed eachothers company as much as possible before the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. Here's a glimpse of one of our morning walks with Porgie.

  • After a difficult time apart during the Covid-19 pandemic, Ryan finally managed to properly see her after joining her and her mum's bubble! No visit to Lisa's house is complete without some puppy cuddles with Georgia (Porgie).

  • Celebrating our second Valentine's day at Cafe Andaluz for some lovely Tapas.

  • Our first trip to Disneyland Paris. Claire was finally in her element and got to meet her childhood hero ‐ Mike Wazowski. Unfortunately, we discovered that in France he's called Bob Razowski, but perceptions did not change.

  • Celebrating our first anniversary at our favourite steakhouse, Kyloe.

  • Our first trip to Dubai to meet the Shah's... You will never understand how nerve-wracking this was for Ryan. For those who know us Shah's more personally, you'll get it ;).

  • Our first Valentine's day together!

  • First cuddles with Molly, looking as displeased as usual... And, of course, can't be pictured with Molly without a scratch (see her hand) beforehand!

  • Enjoying some South Indian cuisine at Tanjore, finishing off with gulab jamun. Ryan was secretly testing whether she would like the food before introducing her to this side of the family ;).

  • Our first date was at the Marriott located at Heriot-Watt, where we had both gone to University for our undergraduate degrees! From this moment, I knew she was someone special as I felt an immediate connection to how open our conversation was about each other.
