Another great weekend has been and gone. A curry with Nick’s friends from Stevenage on Friday was a hoot and a wedding of a great couple Nick and I met at the last wedding of Bun and Kutie. I think I rather drank too much at the wedding and we can blame Rice and Nicoise for that (bride and groom.) It was a fabulous wedding. A perfect English summer day and an amazing wedding service with blue robed choristers in the small village church of Kings Walden. As the happy couple signed the register they sang the 23rd psalm (which is also the theme to the vicar of Dibley…a religious sitcom featuring Dawn French. If you haven’t seen it yet…doh!!! Where you been get the DVD? It is especially good because it is religious humour that doesn’t destroy the message of Christianity. I have put the music below off YouTube for you to listen to…you must get the CD of Choral Works by Howard Goodall.

The reception was probably the most extravagant I have ever been too…. (Not that I go too many.) Good old working boy me, more used to pie and peas in working men’s clubs (hee-haw.) Tattinger flowed like the clear, rushing melt water of a Himalayan river in spring underneath a cream linen sky (marquee.) There An Abba tribute band, Spanish guitarist and disco and the food was divine. So thanks guys for inviting us we had a great time and wish you every good thing for the future. And a special mention to your great friends from the village…real people with no pretensions and so very friendly. Hope you’re having a good honeymoon in Devon. Enjoy the pictures and music.

Write again soon.
