I do like Saturdays. The relaxed start to the day, the extra hour in bed. That we don't have to get the children off to school and all that. Nevertheless it is not a totally free day for me by any means. First of all there is the run to the piano teacher for daughter no. 1. Then off to the church to do the marriage registers. Pick up daughter from piano lesson. Back home prepare for wedding, prepare for Sunday, Have lunch, then off to church at 1 p.m. to get church ready for 2 p.m. wedding.

At 1:45 church is filling up nicely, 2 p.m. await bride who is bang on time (RAF family). And what a nice wedding too (I've seen all sorts I can tell you). I suppose today's was as close to text book as they get.

After wedding off to the reception for a polite glass of fizzy stuff - a quick chat and then back home.

On arriving home sons 1 & 2 have made a camp fire in the scrappy part of the garden so Sarah (wife) suggests that we have our dinner out side by the fire. As we are to have sausages and beans it all seems quite appropriate. So dinner round the camp fire followed by toasted marsh mallows.

Kids to bed and now it's time for beer.
