THE MAKING OF THE WEDDING - 6th APRIL 1972 - 2006

SALLY
SILLY BILLYS THAT WE WERE!!
I just had to tell you a bit about this wedding video - which I hope you've watched -we were both so numb on the day that we don't know why or how but Rog and I ended up leaving the church in seperate cars! He with the best man and me with his girlfriend! Now that's how we arrived and we were in such a daze - ( never having done that kind of thing before!), I guess we thought that somone would usher us generally in the right direction ..... But they didn't! Sally our pet doggy bridesmaid was the most focused creature present that day - she behaved impeccably, never leaving our sides for a moment and with not as much as a whimper throughout. Sally made that day in every sense of the word - she upstaged us all.

The actual 8mm cine film was preserved for years until 1997 when my dear Dad who took the footage decided to have it put onto tape; He presented us with a copy for our silver wedding anniversary - he was such a thoughtful man. Last year I thought a complete revamp was in order and thru a miniDv camera , I recorded from the tv screen as the tape ran thru the vcr - I then had to hack it thru my editing software and add music, titles and effects etc. Dad would have been proud of me now I'm sure, as it's transformed into an amusing capture of the day's events - to be treasured forever .... So HERE IT IS!!
