I met Cary Grant!

Cary Grant was born in Bristol in 1904, he left at the age of sixteen with a theatre company, on tour in the USA, and he decided to stay! He became an American citizen in 1942, but he is still a Bristolian, because look, here he is!

A fitting tribute to Nigel

Our dear friend, best man, god father to our son, Nigel Marland, died earlier this year. He was a life-long supporter of Oldham Rugby League Club, and as a tribute the team’s strip has his name and dates emblazoned on the shirt. http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/nigel-marlands-name-lives-oldham-6855853 http://www.oldham-chronicle.co.uk/news-features/8/news-headlines/84295/tributes-paid-to-charismatic-nigel Nigel in his white tuxedo at our wedding

Registered fish and chips

This used to be a registry office, as you can see. Now it is a fish and chip shop, as you can also see. I wish it had been open so we could have tried some of their fish and chips, but sadly it wasn’t!
