The plan: every week there will be a post. They will go on a three week rotation, Keegan, Nicole then Chris (or the other way round, don't care too tired). They will document the oddness and quirkiness and astoundingness of the original residents of jasmine Cottage. Enjoy, or don't... but if you don't, enjoy not enjoying it; dislike can be so pleasurable.

Introduction To Us.
Introductions seem to be in order. Who are these freaks? you might be asking yourself. Why should I sepnd my valuable time reading this? What is this all about? Well this post will almost certainly not help.
This is me, or a very flattering version of me, because let's be honest, if given the chance, most people would draw themselves looking nice. I study english and art history. I wear scarves and like op-shopping, I have a slight aversion to commas. You can expect some writing, some painting or drawing (though never again on MSPaint) some photographs and some crafts from me.
This is Keegan (see it has a big arrow saying Keegan). He wears suits, well a specific suit jacket, because he wants to look like Bernard Black. He doesn't do much.
This is Chris (again the arrow may have tipped you off). Chris and I are together, awww... He wears an ugly hat my mother knitted to keep his orbular, bald head warm, apparently it has a micro climate. He studies physics and plays games on the television, I hear that it is all the rage with the cool kids these days.
We live together in Jasmine Cottage, Dale rents a room.
The First of at Least Several
It occurred to Nicole, whilst we were trying to write a story together (turned out horrible, thanks for asking!) that if we wrote things often enough that were of interesting nature we could start a Blog. Only what to call it? So Chris was included in our deluded efforts to produce entertaining material on a regular basis (he still doesn't actually know yet...). And by doing so we could just call the thing Jasmine Cottage (or "The Astounding Achievements of Jasmine Cottage" apparently), for that moniker is what a simple wooden plaque, situated at the front end of the houseflat we live in, so boldly pronounces to be title of the flathouse. The decision to create this creative out let was made scant few days ago, thinking we had time to procure a digital camera and other such device to fully deliver to you, the reader(s), what we, the author(s), had to deliver. But lo! it was foist upon me so soon. One day you may yet see the bold Plaque of Naming, but it is not this day.
At least I was able to secure the honour of first post (after a brief scuffle), because it meant I got to tell the tale of the genesis of this outlandish concept and didn't actually have to come up with a new and interesting idea to actually write about.
So welcome to this 'blog, potentially destined for great things and don't worry, I'm sure Nicole will be less irritatingly verbose and irritating.

PostScript: I have been informed that the next post, to be authored by none other than Nicole, will feature wee MS paintings of us each and also a small description about us. So she too, is milking content from the fact we started this thing and so won't have to think of new stuff to write about.
