Congratulations to Lee Fletcher, who married Nicki yesterday. Words fail me when I try to descibe Lee in a wider frame than you see on these boards.  So let me simply say that it's a huge honour for me to have got to know them both, and to have met their extended family and friends yesterday when Lisa and I  travelled to their wedding.

What can I tell you of the wedding?  Their lovely local church dating back to 11th Century, comfortably filled with friends and family.  A moving ceremony.  A bride and groom clearly - VERY clearly - in love, and also right for each other.  A reception afterwards in the Church Hall with so much hard work put in ahead of time by friends and family who clearly think the world of Nicki and Lee. Very much their day - but also very much a day that everyone else was delighted to be there, and enjoyed themselves, in offering their blessing and very best wishes.

Nicki and Lee left after the reception for their honeymoon.  But I'm certain they'll read this thread on their return, so please feel free to add your messages.

Yes, indeed - very hearty congratulations to both! And I sincerely hope Nicki will put up with your passions even longer than my lovely wife has put up with mine (27 years and counting)!

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post (a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London), depending on context) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: Stop, Look, Listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.
