This weekend I went up to the Lake District in the north-west of England to the wedding of the daughter of my good friends’ Steve and Yvonne. I was at Queen Mary College with Steve, so we go back quite a few years (far too many to really want to count them). Also joining us from our college days in the Geology Department was Colin (and his wife Mel). We had quite a nice time reminiscing on our past times together.
As for the wedding itself – everything went off wonderfully and a good time was had by all. This summer in England has been the wettest since records began so you can imagine the anxieties over having a good day for the wedding - the odds were against it. Nevertheless, the weather gods were smiling on Fridat for the wedding and while it was a little overcast, it stayed mostly dry and there was even sunshine for the photographs.
As you can see from the photograph, the bride and groom looked absolutely splendid. My congratulations to Ben and Anna who are now sunning themselves on the beach in Cancun.

It was nice to see you again Steve, especially having someone in the green(er) corner with me when the late-night debates got into full swing :-)
one small note... Lakes is NW and not NE ;-)
Have a good trip back to the UK!
