Hello, hello, hello, hello, it’s Monday. What of it? Despite starting the week with the usual severe delays in the Jubilee Line, I am back in the office and for once, I don’t care.

I am in a good mood. I had a great weekend (although Sunday was perforce quiet as we recuperated) and that is all there is to it.

On Saturday we went over to Wanstead for the wedding of [livejournal.com profile] mrtonylee and his lovely fiancée1, [livejournal.com profile] belle_fille1982. The couple, church, ceremony and guests were marvellous – yes, this is me writing, the person who finds weddings tedious, and it all went off very well and a splendid time was had by all.

Due to a slight booboo on our part, [livejournal.com profile] ellefurtle and I, in league with Craig and Emma (as far as I am aware, both sans LJ) rather mistimed our taxi and arrived at the country club for the reception a good half hour to forty minutes ahead of the rest of the party, so you won’t see any of us in the photos taken outside the church. Ahem.

This did mean, however, that despite forgetting my camera and having to rely on my iPhone, I got the first picture of the wedding cake, which in my opinion was the best wedding cake I have ever seen (or helped eat). With Tony being a writer and Tracy being a book fiend of the first cheddar, what else could the theme be?



I swear that if the bride and groom had been any happier, they would have floated off through an open window.

It was good to meet up with a few friends and renew acquaintances from the previous week, some of whom I hope will become friends in due course.



I shall finish off with a picture of Mr and Mrs Lee cutting their cake.

Oh yes. We found Furtle’s engagement ring, too. But you will have to wait until next Saturday for more news and possible photographic evidence of that!





1This title is, of course, now quite redundant!

If it's Tony's ex-housemate Craig, he's on [livejournal.com profile] madwelshwizard but he hasn't updated since September 2010...

'Tis indeed a really cool cake, providing a rare instance where peeps can literally devour a good book. I likes the iphone photos, the sepia tone really works.

The little church down Wanstead Lane on the left as you walk down from the High Road. I have carefully forgotten what it's called, but it is not the one with the scaffolding on it!

How funny! That is about 5 mins from our house! Do they live here?

Yes - just down past Snaresbrook station.

Small world!
