So we headed off on Thursday afternon via Rhug and a stay in a Days Hotel just north of Chester to our fourth and final wedding of the summer in Upper Hopton, Mirfield. There a member at Childs Hill was getting married.Several things marked this out as a little different to other weddings this summer. Firstly, bride and groom are in their forties. Secondly, it is a transatlantic affair. He is an American. They will be living in America. Then there is the fact that they met on the internet and both bring children to the new situation, both having had previous relationships.
The wedding took place in St John the Evangelist, Upper Hopton in Mirfield, Yorkshire, a delightful but painfully "high" Anglican church. The reception for about 60 of us, including seven from Childs Hill, followed in a new part of the model farm, Bradford. It was an unseasonably cold day, which was a pity but it was a lovely time in other respects, including the lovely food by local caterers.
We headed back to Aber around 9 pm and got home in the small hours. We do wish them well, especially with visas and citizenship, etc.
