Best Friends

I've been so lucky in life in that I grew up with the greatest bunch of lads and, to this day, we have all remained as close as ever. James was the baby of our group and we spent an awful lot of time trying to keep him out of trouble. Today he is probably the most sensible one of us - after me of course - and we were all delighted to take a trip to Dublin for the weekend and attend his wedding.

I'm always nervous at every wedding I cover and although there was no pressure on me with regard to video coverage for this one - I was sort of like the friend with a video camera - nevertheless, watching one of your best mates getting married is pretty nerve racking. Here's a sneak peek of what happened...






All in all, it was a great weekend - I got to meet Liezel's lovely parents and family from South Africa, Osias and his wife Erika invited us to visit them in Brazil (get a bed ready for us guys!), it's always a pleasure to chat with John & Margaret Pierce, and I'd great craic catching up with Liz while my mates poisoned their Baileys' with shots of brandy and Sambuccas.

Congratulations James & Liezel.

PS. Tell all your guests and mates to feel free to watch the video and leave a comment!

that was one of the best wedding videos i've seen (not that i've seen a lot.) wedding videos made here in hk suck.

i get the kicks out of reading other people's blogs,

your faithful blogger-commenter
