The wedding of the year
We went to our first wedding of the year on Friday and it was really nice.
Our journey over to Newcastle was uneventful, although we did get stuck in traffic and ended up arriving at the restaurant a little late: the happy couple were already married.
In fact, even if we'd been on time they'd have still been married by the time we got there: they'd had the ceremony earlier, somewhere else.
There were lots of people at the restaurant who I didn't know - it's always interesting to meet new people. These were the bride's family, some of whom I'd heard about before so it was good to put faces to names. We had a lovely meal and sat around chatting in the afternoon sunshine.
We then made our way into town to the club, managing to get lost on the way. Corrie's little brother, who's not little but is 15, was with us and we were a little concerned that he wouldn't get in - but he did. We had a private room reserved for us behind the bar and it was cool - very dark with feeble little lights, booths and comfy seating, mirrors and music.... We spent the evening chatting and drinking.
And that was it. We didn't stay up late but we did call in at the kebab shop on the way back.
