ATTENTION FAMILY!!
CAUTION - WEDDING PHOTOS BELOW - DO NOT SCROLL DOWN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE

Well we went to Ireland for Janeya and Jim's wedding. It was a great weekend and we throughly enjoyed ourselves. Some of us a little too much, those Irish sure know how to party!!!

We flew over on Thursday and drove down to Mullinavat the tiny wee village where Janeya and Jim live. Needless to say when we finally arrived, all excited to see my couzies, they weren't there! Judi, Tina and Janeya were in Waterford where they had been shopping and lunching together! We arranged to meet them in the 'Rising Sun' pub which is just a stones throw from J&J's house, rather handy as that we where we spent the majority of the weekend!!

We met Jim later in the evening and all went for a drink down at the pub after dinner from the local chippie. The weather was typical Irish weather, raining and cold, a nice change from Glasgow.... yeah right!

On Friday Simon and I went into Waterford to have a look around and do a bit of shopping, before racing back to Mullinavat to get ready for the wedding at 5.30pm. After getting our glad rags on and admiring Janeya in her finery we drove through to Kilkenny for the wedding. Jim was nervously waiting with his family at the registry office and then it was time.

Janeya looked beautiful and Jim was quite a sight in his new suit. Before you knew it they were nervously saying their vows and signing the register. All over until December 2007 when they do it again in NZ.

We then went out for dinner and then back to the Rising Sun for a very late night full of lots of unexplained Irish customs, some they just made up on the night.... do not mention the hot wax!!

It was a great night and we all enjoyed ourselves, and spent Saturday recovering!! Sunday was for a quick trip to the Waterford crystal factory and then we had to head back to Dublin to the airport. We took Tina and Judi back with us so tearful farewells all round.

After we dropped off Tina and Judi we had about 3 hours to kill so we drove up the coast and watched a storm move across to Scotland, needless to say it had arrived by the time we got home.
