Wedding
Exclusive Edition 224 Monday March 10th 2014
Hi,those in the know do say “it will be alright on the night”
and it was! My new wife looked stunningly beautiful taking my breath and my
tears away as she glided gracefully across the ground towards me. After a
somewhat stressful buildup when all that could go wrong did we were truly
blessed with a perfect wedding day in every respect. Friends and family all
played their part in assisting us with their warm kindness and generosity and
this combined with our amazing venue to create a memorable day (see attached).A
decadent night in the big smoke culminating with dinner and a sumptuous night
at the waterfront Hilton Hotel was the ultimate conclusion to a day of surreal
pleasure for my wife and I.
From
the Fletcher file; Our son seems to have
developed a habit and love for saving money. His piggy bank is his favourite
thing in the world and like any good pig is hungry and needs to be fed often.
Hence any spare change is expected to be handed over on a regular basis. We
have created a budding saver and reckon the small change is a huge investment!
Wow, what a roller coaster ride the last few weeks have been
for us. I am so grateful we have family and friends who were there
unconditionally to help and support us through it. I am also lucky to have
finally married my soul mate even if it took me fifty odd years to find her. I
have a lot to be thankful for and look forward to every second of our exciting
future together.
I wish you all every happiness and urge you to work at your
relationships with family and friends as they are the things that fulfill us in
life……………….Cheers Jonesey!!
Harry
and the Joneses??? No way Oscar and Kate Henderson reckon….sorry,it
stays bro!!
“A good marriage at
age 50 predicted positive aging at 80. But, surprisingly, low cholesterol
levels did not.”Dr George Valliant (Harvard
Medical School)
“Marriage is about realizing you want to spend the
rest of your life with somebody, and wanting the rest of your life to start as
soon as possible.”
Christine, I love that we have so much in common
and often think about things at the same time. I love that we text each other
simultaneously. I love that you try to catch the same wave as me in the surf. I
love that you make being me so easy even if it is the ‘occasionally grumpy’ me.
I love that you get ‘that look’ when you’re looking at me like I’m nuts. I love
that we produced a beautiful son and that he has you as his Mother. I
love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at
night. Not because I’m lonely, not because it’s my role to do so but because I
couldn’t think of anything more important for me to do each evening.
“I guarantee that we’ll have tough times. And I
guarantee that at some point, one or both of us will get more than a little
annoyed with the other. But I also guarantee that if I didn’t ask you to be
mine, I would regret it for the rest of my life. Because I know in my heart you
are the only one for me.”
“If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be
a hundred minus one day so I never have to live a day without you.”

from our wedding on Saturday 08/03/14)
“Age does not protect you from love but to some extent love protects you
from age.” Jeanne Moreau (French
actress)
