Sorry Ladies

The nearest and dearest among you will already be aware but I figured with the nature of the world nowadays, online and otherwise that announcing my ‘fate’ via the Internet would be the easiest option.

My girlfriend Holly Thompson and I have eventually decided to tie the knot.   We will be getting married in Glasgow on the 9^th of January at the Hotel Du Vin.  The ceremony itself will be a real small one with family and friends then we will have a much larger party in the evening where everyone can lose their minds accordingly.

This might seem like fairly wild patter, especially coming from me but the more I thought about the idea of the more it felt like the right thing to do.  Maybe I am getting soft in my old age?  We have lived together for a couple of years now and are still as in love as we always have been.  I’ve never been really into the idea of marriage as most of you may know but I guess your priorities change when you realize you’re with the right person.

Holly was all booked and ready to go start a new life in New Zealand when I met her a few years back and she decided to take the gamble on sticking around here with me so we could leave together. So, in turn I’m taking the gamble on spending my life with her. 

We will be selling up and leaving Scotland for good on the 16^th of January to travel the world with an eye on seeing where we would like to eventually settle so figured getting married while we were here would not only make us really happy but would also make sense as our friends and family could all be there and we could leave Scotland in a much safer and secure situation.

I’ve never really had a lot of family so it makes me pretty happy to be gaining a whole new one with Holly’s; they have always been there for us so I couldn’t be prouder.

The day itself will be amazing and the perfect end to our time in Glasgow with all the amazing people we have met over the years.  I hope you share our happiness at this and hope that you will be able to join us on the day.

The invites will be out at the end of November, make sure you’re in town and have yer glad rags at the ready.

Cheers
