  1. Sitting down to write this speech was a daunting task. Where to begin? For inspiration, I turned to perhaps our greatest public speaker, The Queen, and I soon found something which has only recently been made public and seemed appropriate:
    “Good evening ladies and gentlemen, not for a single moment did I imagine that this solemn duty would one day fall to me, as this madness once more spreads through the world and we must once again prepare to survive against great odds. But whatever terrors lie in wait for us all..."
    Sorry, that's the wrong speech, that's the one prepared for the outbreak of World War Three...

  2. (For weddings August 28)
    It's ironic that (Bride) and (Groom) are getting married today and agreeing to "love, honour and obey", as back on this day in 1834 slavery was outlawed in the British empire with the emancipation bill.

  3. (For weddings August 17)
    Of course, today's wedding coincides with the start of the football season, it's an occasion when lots of money has been spent, everyone is full of excitement and no one is quite sure how it'll turn out, which, of course also goes for the football season...

  4. (For weddings August 3)
    Today, August 3rd, is a special day in history. Just as (Groom) and (Bride) are starting their voyage of life together, Christopher Columbus performed a similar feat in 1492 as he set sail for the Americas. Let's hope that (Groom) and (Bride’s) voyage is just as exciting and exotic and that (Groom) doesn't get lost during the honeymoon looking for the Indies.
