Nice Day For A White Wedding - Billy Idol

A 'cop out' post today I'm afraid, as it's the day Jon Storey marries Sally Marsden. It is hoped to rectify this tomorrow with photos of what should be the Rock 'n' Roll wedding of the year, starting with the ceremony early afternoon and followed by a reception (in the Park Hotel) that could easily wend well into the night? There should also be the bonus of seeing many our Muso and TV mates, but that is an unknown quantity at the moment.

Until tomorrow then, I'll take this opportunity of thanking Martin Cade, Professor Peter Morgan and a whole host of other 'ringers' for their staunch efforts over the year bringing to us a stream of 'Birds in the Hand'. This, of course, also has the knock on effect of allowing many of us to view both rare and common birds at close quarters. Here are a few for the readership to marvel at.

Manana!
