I will be giving something special away this weekend. Something I hold very dear and love unconditionally. Having been maintaining from 'new', all the time and effort for both Anne and I, has been a joy and a pleasure. I am of course apprehensive and nervous as all my family will be there for this special the occasion. Handing over in front of so many people will be emotional, yet heart warming. Yes, this weekend I will be walking my daughter Rebecca (Boo) down the aisle.  Left to right: Anne and my perfect daughters Sara, Rebecca and Hannah.  |

Thanks Chaps for your good wishes, Yes I think more than one hanky will be required. Not quite 3:1 as my son Tom (twin to Hannah) will even out the numbers a bit. Some may recognise them from the many Rover events they use to attend when they were younger. Never been so nervous -giving a speech is going to be a real challenge.  |

Don't worry David. I had to speak to a marquee full people at my son Dustin's wedding in Tuscany two weeks ago.
Start off with a joke and before you know it your under steam!! Think of the SAAB...beter yet think of England!!'s
And it's good news she has found her man...imagine if she hadn't. And the years rolled by.

I only had the one Daughter to give away and that was bad enough - bit of a wrench... but at least he was OK! - (the men they choose is never good enough for us Dads).
I do hope all went well and the best of all the world to the young couple...... You have a good day weatherwise for the occaision.
Never mind Dad you will be blessed -one way or another.... and you may have yet another shot of giving away something precious.

Apologies for not replying sooner, but everything has been a bit hectic. Suffice to say it was a truly wonderful occasion for us all and far more moving than I expected. I will not bore you with too many photos but hope these few will give you an idea of the day.  All my children together with my 'new' son, Alex.  Proud mum & dad with the bride  Needs no caption!  The flower girls wore trainers (as did the bride)  This is so Becky! |
