Thanks everyone.

Is this the ceremony or is it required to do a little civil signing and then you can go ahead and have whatever kind of ceremony that you want (I believe someone told me that Germany did it that way)?

For civil ceremonies (as opposed to uncivil?) the registrar (Hollywood would have us believe in the US it's a judge) pronounces the vows for the couple to repeat then, whether church or civil, the couple sign the register, the witnesses sign that the couple have signed, and then the bride is given her marriage certificate. The register is part of the national register of births, marriages and deaths (Hatched, matched and despatched...)

Only at work - same as me. She uses the iMac at home. We do have two, but I
haven't had time to get the G3 sorted out this week.... smile.gif

Congratulations, Neil & Caroline!

Sorry for the belated wishes, but I've not had very many free moments for TS or anything else "fun" recently!

What wonderful news.

I haven't opened TeeEss since early yesterday, so onlynow – while sitting in the airport lounge in Honolulu waiting for my flight back to the Mainland – do I read this splendid announcement. Warmest aloha to you both.

I'll include this traditional Hawaian wedding lei , since I asume a celebration continues . . ..


Sorry that I can quite seem to figure-out how to send along some plumeria aromas to further grace the occasion. a good substitute would be to persuade your editor(s) to send you on a Pacific cruise for more "objective" reporting about cruisin' the tropics. clap.gif  salute.gif  cheer.gif

Peter: I watched BBC2's coverage earlier today of the IoM TT race week. Is that why you went to Berlin? biggrin.gif

Those riders have to be absolutely barmy. New lap record for 37.75 miles was well under 18 minutes - on ordinary town and mountain roads complete with houses, stone walls, hump-back bridges, 4in kerbs, people standing on the banks of the road.... In the prelim they showed us a village where people are sitting outside a pub drinking, "protected" by those temporary crowd barriers - the freestanding sort they put up for the likes of royal visits - and told us it was the fastest straight on the course, with one bike clocking 206mph as it went past. "The riders are so close if they had time they could take a drink out of someone's hand."

Fascinating to watch - certainly far more interesting than F1. But thanks - I WILL just watch... smile.gif

TO ALL OF YOU: Many thanks for all your good wishes. We are happy we could share the good news with our friends of many nations.
