Christmas day, Happy Christmas!

Not too much to say. The kids were all around at one time and another during the day and we had supper at about sixish. We had roast beef and gammon for a change, no turkey, I think we were all turkeyed out, also no braaied lamb, a bit wet out.
Liz was not dressed like that on Christmas day, she wore the nanny McPhee outfit for the children in need do at her shop, during December


Saturday 23rd December



Well Saturday was a busy day for us. We had Cherry and Steve's wedding. Liz had to report to Cherry at 7:30 in March. Louise and Matt collected her and just after 8 Liz was conducting a small aerobics class of two, her and Cherry. The others were exhausted watching. I pitched up at ten ish ready for the eleven am kick off. I was handed the video camera and told to take pictures, I was the photographer for the day! The bridal car was a ford, even older than mine, about 1950s. They ceremony was in the registry office in March, quite fancy too, they had a nice room for the ceremony, loads of seating for the guests. As you see from the pictures, Louise and Matt are in the group photo. The other is the happy couple in the registry office. After this ceremony we were to go to the local church for some other religious ritual. This next phase was schedule for 1pm, so we had a wait of about an hour, more than ample time for pictures. The church was really old and had lots of carvings of pheasants in the roof, Liz said they were angels, I don't believe her. We finished at the church at two and then went on to the reception at a restaurant in March, the food was excellent. There was a disco booked to start at five, but by six we had had it and Liz had another religious urge to sing so I had to take her to the local catholic institution. The day was about the chilliest so far.
