the man who married his daughter . . . and other stories . . . !
well, the day started fine and bright – hailstones where I live, sky cleared,
then just before the groom arrived – a big twisty twirly thing appeared in the sky behind Linden Hall.
I took a picture of the big twisty twirly thing,
then chinese whispers took place.
by tea time – some folks were asking about the tornado coming down,
then they asked about the jet fighter coming down
in the end – someone asked me if I had a picture of the helicopter crash.
so for the record – a tornado, though it may be an aircraft – in this case – was a big twisty twirly thing in the sky.
pictures to follow . .
so . . what’s this wedding guest filming ?
groom arriving ?
nope – it’s a big twisty twirly . . . you get the drift !
aw nuts,
surely there are more interesting things at a wedding than a boring old tornado . ..
here we see the girls in the bridal suite – toolbox in the foreground . .
righty ho . for those of you who love details, this is a detail.
guess what it is
(I’ll tell you)
it’s the embroidery on the brides bolero top.
and more details below . . bouquets lie in wait for the wedding
you need to know the story behind this one.
well, Louise and her pals were watching something on tv . . subject . . . Bridezillas.
apparently one American girl got married with a gun pushed down her boobs.
hmm. not to be outdone, the bridesmaids came prepared – plastic water pistols.
Looks like a stick up . . call the . .
call the registrar, theres a wedding in the offing . .
ah - I forgot to mention
the other part of this lovely story was – the man who married his daughter . ..
Louise, the bride, was married to Tom, by her father Dennis, who just so happens to be the Registrar of Marriages !
weddings are sometimes a little emotional – Lou has suddenly found something in her eye.
it’s a tear.
do you take this man to be your wife . .
place the ring on the third finger, left hand . .
aw you know the stuff . .
ooh – what’s going on here – this guy’s up to something.
Toms brother and best man (2 jobs – versatile feller)
hits home with his embarrassing powerpoint presentation
and below – the wit n humour strike home
whilst Tom takes cover behind a napkin.
ok . . some confusing pictures here . . . . wellies.
well ( couldn’t resist that)
something to do with an awful boy stealing a girls wellies when she was small
and placing them on top of the nearest post box, so that she couldnt’ reach them.
must have been an awful boy who did that sort of thing.
anyway – wellies returned . .
and wellies immediately road tested.
Hey – we found a piano
and also found that Tom can play the piano
sorry Linden, I think that there was a notice on the piano somewhere
DO NOT TOUCH THE PIANO
we put it back . . .
next – Louise hurled her special throwing bouquet -
it had a weight and a dart in it so that when it hits its target – it stays there.
only joking about the dart.
for heavens sake – please don’t go asking your florist for a bouquet with a dart in it . . .
I’ll get a bad name.
anyhow – dancing ensued !
never work with children or animals.
they steal the show !
this little girl stole the dance floor !
final pictures – it had to end sometime.
thank you Lou and Tom for a lovely day !
