Griff conducting the service. The saying of vows again for all the 96 couples. This was done live on the Radio.
Ginny looking resplendent on the right in the dark blouse with the white and red flowers very chic. I sound like one of the red carpet Journalist's commenting on one of the award shows.
Ginny with her cupcake as part of the toast to the Bride and Groom. We also had our First dance again but with 96 other couples the dance floor was a bit crowed but great fun.
This is a picture of the two of us at our Pre-Renupital Breakfast at the Holiday Inn , Dartmouth, NS.
This is the Master of Ceremonies Griff Henderson and Caroline Parker from Kool 96.5fm. The Weather here was raining and cool. The place was done up very elegant. Flowers a red rose was handed out to each of the ladies. I guess to remind them of the Thorn they married. Well we just had a one way conversation with family out in Cambodia. They could see and hear us but all we could see was a black blob.
They sent an email to Kool 96.5 to be read out and although they did mention the world wide connection of people listening in. Just want to say a big Thank you to KOOL 96.5FM for adding a little more Romance into our lives for doing the" Happily Ever After Again." We know you were thinking about us Merms. and I was glad I had a chance to talk with you last night in London. The Radio does bring a lot of friends and family closer.

Valentine's Day- Kool 96.5fm Hfx Nova Scotia

This will be the first year that we have actually bothered to do something different or special on Valentine's Day. Not that we are not romantic. Just after the first year. When I bought a skimpy outfit for someone to wear. Thought I was smooth found out I only bought it for me and not the love of my life. Who bye the way never wore it. ( and neither did I).
You tend to learn by mistakes. I am still in the learning process. Well, it has been 25 years this Valentine Day since we first met.
Further update, we just got a call from the radio station and they will be talking to us live on wednesday at 7:50 am our time. I wonder how I will put my foot in it then. As I will be half a sleep and really do not have much in the way of Tact and Diplomacy.
We have been very happily married for over 20 years.
So thanks to Kool96.5fm radio here in Halifax. We will be renewing our vows along with 95 other couples. Live on the airways on Valentine's Day at 9.00 am our time; and 1pm in the UK and 8pm in Cambodia. So listen in and give us your thoughts. Wish you were here Merms; both G. and myself would love to have you here with us, it will not be the same without you.
Their link is url : http://www.planetkool.ca/
Now if I could figure out how to actually put the link so when you press it you get transferred to the proper page. Perhaps someone can explain how this works?

Kool96.5 the 14th. Valentine's Day Renewing Vows
Well, We entered and won a contest to have our vows renewed on the 14th. FEB. The local Radio station is kool965fm.ca.
It will take place live on the Air waves starting at 9am our time. Which will be at 1pm in the UK. We will be with another 95 couples (96.5). Get it! I suppose a Divorced person will be the other .5. One couple will also win a 2nd Honeymoon to Las Vegas ( or Lost Wages) Nev.
Both of us entered the contest unknow to each other. As we never have done anything for the 14th. before, as for me everyday is Valentine's Day. Same thing for Christmas. We have recycled the same Christmas Card to each other for almost 20 years now. Always add a different saying to the card to time capsule the year past. We both must be incurable romantics at heart.
After the horrible week I had being in court with "Buddy Boy". ( if you haven't seen what I am talking about go back to Dec. Blog and fast forward.)
It would be cool for the Mermaid to be here with us but as the North Atlantic is very stormy and lots of Iceberg's. It is not safe to swim over at this time of year. Also the Sealing Fleet will be off shore soon. Mermaids maybe mistaken for something else.
Although it would be an interesting opportunity to meet lonely single Fishermen, Merms.........
