Wedding Anniversary.

[curiouswombat]

Well today is our wedding anniversary - and I can tell you that the weather in North Shields nineteen years ago was rather nicer than the weather in the Isle of Man today!

We have just been out for a lovely Chinese meal - I am sitting here absolutely stuffed with salt and chilli ribs and crispy duck - apologies to vegetarian friends! Poor S2C was at work last night, had about five hours sleep during the day, and disappeared upstairs when we got home from our meal out. Romance may not be dead, but it is snoring!!

I had thought to amuse you with one of the original wedding photos, but this would involve scanning, converting to JPEG and remembering how to put it onto Photobucket, and I'm too stuffed at the moment to concentrate that hard - maybe at the weekend!

Happy Anniversary! I'm sorry it wasn't more romantic today, but it's how it shakes out over the long haul that matters, isn't it? And I'd love to see the wedding pictures. I think I put mine up a while back, so you have to share too!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

I promise I will get around to putting a photo or two up at the weekend! I must go back over your LJ and look for yours.

I can't find the the entry, but I know I didn't imagine it. The pics were taken with some poor cameras and had been in a storage compartment for years. When I tried to fix them Mr. M's coat changed colors, prompting some comments about "mood suits."

I did find the post of Mr. M's childhood photo. With your fondness for Charlie Brown, you should appreciate his head and ears:

Oh wasn't he cute? I have vey few pictures of S2C as a child - but in the only one I have of him as a baby he looks exactly like a middle aged Clive James - which probably means nothing to you in the US - and is a scary prospect for those in the UK over about 25!!

Romance may not be dead, but it is snoring!! That begs to made into an icon. And duck yum.

That begs to made into an icon

It does rather, now that you mention it! Not sure quite what picture would be best - must think about it.

The duck was very yum!

Congrats! And: Mmm...Chinese... ~_^

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks. It was very good Chinese.

Happy Anniversary. Maybe romance is snoring, but as long as it's not dead after 19 years, you're ahead of the game. :-)

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

you're ahead of the game. :-)

Thanks - and yes, I think you're right!

Well, if it's any consolation it poured down at various points today in Newcastle and by the time I got back to Monkseaton there was mist a good mile or two inland.

Sounds like you had a good day... and congratulations to you both.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Well it sounds like the weather in North Shields wasn't as good as it was nineteen years ago either - more just like the weather on the Isle of Man. Although we've got a lovely morning this morning, more like our weddind day was.

[talesofspike.livejournal.com]

Think you got the better part of the weather deal, then. It started out drizzly here before it got to just plain wet.

Happy Anniversary! :)

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

[opalescence.livejournal.com]

Perhaps later you can post the photo? Congratulations to both of you!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the congrats, and the rose. I promise that I will put one or two up at the weekend.

Congratulations on the married longevity you have achieved. May the next 19 year be smooth, sweatless, and relatively snoreless.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks, and I'm all for May the next 19 year be smooth, sweatless, and relatively snoreless.

Happy Anniversary!!! And many, many thanks to yourself, Speaker and DD for taping Doctor Who for me :)

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks, and no problem.

[desdemonaspace]

Corn-gratulations to the nicest couple on LJ! Yes, photos, please. We've seen the lovely dress. Now let's see the mullet!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks, actually the mullet came later! I will put a photo or two up at the weekend.

Happy Anniversary!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks dear - hope you are improving - all that spray paint sucks!

[bogwitch.livejournal.com]

Happy Anniversary (if a little late)!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[speakr2customrs.livejournal.com]

I had salt & chilli squid, and thought of you.

[bogwitch.livejournal.com]

I won't tell Illyria that.

[calove.livejournal.com]

CONGRATULATIONS!

There was nice weather in North Shields? I must have missed that day ;)

Romance may not be dead, but it is snoring!!

Hee hee! Know the feeling.

And crispy duck... yum. There are times when my already shaky vegetarian principles fly out of the window.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

There was nice weather in North Shields?

Yep - I think it was a more settled April than the one we've just had!

[spikereader.livejournal.com]

Congratulations - and I'm looking forward to seeing the pics!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks - I'll have to look for the wedding album - or it will be just one picture!!

[dalmeny]

Congratulations to you both! Salt and pepper dishes and crispy duck are most excellent.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks - they were very yummy!

[frimfram.livejournal.com]

Further congratulations, and cheers for romance in all its forms.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks - romance, like love, is a many splendoured thing!!

[quinara]

No! *covers sheep's ears*

I'm not sure whether this will encourge you to come here in August or not - might just annoy you - but the weather on my island yesterday was definitely better that the weather in North Shields 19 years ago.....

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Weather here is much nicer today. I think I might come by the scenic route, and leave the car behind - womble up by train, and possibly even bus, having a shopping day or two in Glasgow as well.
