The Wedding, Part Two: Saturday the 14th

Oct 20, 2006 20:12

Not quite as dramatic a title, but there you go. It wasn't as if there were insane axe murderers the day before anyway.

It's bizarre waking up in the morning to find all your friends in the same house, passing by you as they try to get their turn in the bathroom. Chantelle and I were only awake and breakfasted long enough before we were whisked ( Read more... )

barn dance, poi, wedding, food

*counter-gushes about how awesome the wedding was*

Also, Iron Maiden or not, I think one picture alone sums up why it was superior to all other weddings ever:

Glad you (or Nick, as the case may be) liked the pressie. I was worried it would appear rather lame next to the mammoth Calvin et Hobbes... which it probably still did. But never mind.

As to the poi... definately least amusing. Not helped by the fact that the wedding photographer took a picture of me curled up on the floor... I wouldn't say I was getting good, either. Adequate, perhaps, considering I'm still using socks? Could somebody lend me some until my shiny new ones arrive?

Sure, gimme a poke sometime when you're around.

Aaaaw c'mon, the music on the entrance/exit fit so very well! :D

And for reference, the point of barn dancing is to be crap. There's no way to do it well. But it's still fun anyway :)

Sounds like an awesome wedding :) Congratulations to both you and Nick :)

Nothing wrong with having the LOTR music, it's gorgeous and ok maybe a tiny bit geeky but then we are all geeks! ;) I thought it fitted brilliantly.

Reading has made me all nostalgic. Maybe there should be a get together like Nick's Dad and his Uni friends do once a year?

See, for ages now, I think it was myself and Martin (or was it Nick?) who came up with the idea of a Geek Retirement Home, where we aging geeks with grown children who've moved away can live together and geek all the remaining days of their lives...

So yes, I would love it if our Southampton lot turned into Daddy's Sheffield lot. :)
