Dear loyal readers, casual observers and those here by mistake,
It is customary in the UK (as elsewhere, I suppose) to publicly announce one’s marriage. Ordinarily, this is done in the form of a short announcement in a newspaper. Yet which one to choose? The Daily Mail: I’d be divorced before I got married. The Times: getting far too right-wing these days. The Guardian: pinko lefties only, me thinks. The Sun: not so much.
Essentially, it’s a difficult choice. Yet I’m a twenty-first century kind of person, or at least I try to be. Hence [one might well ask how ‘twenty first century’ I can be using words like ‘hence’ but anyway] I hereby announce my marriage to my beloved better half this Saturday in (hopefully) sunny North London.
Here’s hoping I can get the ring on her finger before she changes her mind.
Best to all.
David
PS. I think this one definitely goes under the category ‘random’

Congratulations David, and Mrs David
Best thing I ever did, though now occasionally encouraged to eat green-coloured food, strangely my waistline seems to have rebelled
Congratulations! Best of luck to you and the (new) Mrs.
Mabrook, Mabrook. Enjoy the day.
Elf Mabrook my friend. It is just a shame that it isn’t during Eid, so that I could come crash it.
Congratulations David … Wish you a happy life !!!
Congratulations! Probably the best thing you’ll ever do.
Thanks one and all for the kind words. I’m sure it’ll be a great day and I will pass on the thoughts to my much better half.
A bit late, but congratulations…
