Saturday 21st December

I was tempted to call this blog – We Just Got Married, but maybe that would be tempting fate.  But if this appears at all then we most certainly have done the deed.  Long talked about, but as often happens once the decision was actually taken it all happened rather quickly.  A very quiet affair, just us and two witnesses, at the local Registry Office.  No family, though I had told them all a week ago.  A mad week before hand, running around buying suitable clothes for such an inauspicious occasion, more moving of furniture, and possibly craziest of all the decision to have an evening soiree on the same day.  For a few neighbours and friends, but again no real planning just a bit of a mad rush at the end.

Well….we can breathe a sigh of relief.  We did get married and very nice it was too.  Only four guests which was just perfect.  It was quite emotional when it came to it, a slight catch in my voice.  It is so long ago since I did it before , forty years ago actually…..

And now for a party for a few neighbours and friends, probably not too many actually.  We will see.

Just grabbing a quiet moment in an otherwise momentous day.   Part two of the Triathlon is today, the day we got married.
