Ruby wedding celebration

So why was I back in the UK? Well, 40 years ago this month there were two weddings: old college friends Jim & Les and Edith & John. It's hard to believe that we all met 43 years ago in September. Yes, I'm getting old!

Les & Jim organised a party and the weather was stunning. A good job with the numbers that they had invited!

I got to meet young Lucy Yue Ng, J&L's beautiful grand-daughter
Lots of preparation needed: it was a good job I was there!
Raised beds are the future, eh Jim?
Si, Nad, Phil, George & Anna
Raye, Welsh Dave, Edith & John - Dave was another college friend.
Les catching up with other old friends, Pauline, Sue and David. It was great to catch up with them.
Nad getting in some practice for her baby...
...and Uncle Phil too!
The number of pints we sank in the 70s...it was great to see Gil again, here with John
Old buddies together: Jim, Gil and your faithful blogger, combined age 186!
The official cake, shot taken between the happy couple!
