Well, lots of boro and a kilt! ;D
Ian Pearson asked if I'd post these pics from his recent wedding for him, with the text - CONGRATULATIONS again to Ian and Janice :)

Leaves formed the centre part of the theme for the wedding and the wedding
feast featured a table decorated with glass wedding favours, menus rolled
and held by a glass ring and in the centre spotlight was a large
candelabra consisting of many leaves of varying designs. The latter
acknowledged Chihuly in design as I could not seal all the leaves on due to
space and had to tie branches on using fishing line. It brought back
memories of seeing how Dale Chihuly constructed his vast chandeliers for
the Victoria and Albert Museum. Except of course that he used metal cable!
On the morning of the wedding we collected shells from the beach at Brora
near hotel where wedding was and placed them under candelabra. I made a
horseshoe for the bride, ( Janice) although I had no need for extra luck as
the sun was shining!
Honeymoon involved presenting a lecture on scientific glassblowing at
Edinburgh College of Art. It is hoped to maybe follow this up with some
training in the future at the College if funding is available. More later

Congratulations Janice and Ian, I don't know which of you is more resplendant. Must admit to liking the blue in the tartan. Maiden name was Douglas and there's lots of blue in that tartan too. The horse shoe for Janice was a brilliant idea.
