Finnish Madman
So he straps a mini jet-turbine to each ankle, starts them going then jumps out of a hot air baloon at 2000 feet up in the sky.
Nutter.
But fantastic results.
Although personally I would have tied my feet together. If you have jet-turbine engines strapped to your ankles you really dont want them going in different directions.

As soon as a news-anchor says "We're going over live to...." it's always bound to kick off

The Happy Couple. This is actually an action shot. Colin (mums cousin, partially concealled in a picture below) is on the left throwing a handfull of confetti. Sadly the confetti had clumped together, and in about 0.00001 is about to hit Stephanie in the face. She was ok. Hell of a welcome to the family tho'.

Picture of the String Quartet who played in the church while people ere sitting down and waiting for the festivities to begin. I think they were a quartet anyway. You can only see three of them here. One may be hiding. Actually I think one of them was a ninja, so is probably invisible to the camera. Or is that a vampire? A Vampire String Quartet.....can anything be more terrifying?

Out at the back of the hotel there was a lake which was very peacefull to sit in the morning......until the irritating kids who were camping to go fishing were up and awake screaming like the gits they were.
I was sitting, reading, having an early morning smoke in the sunshine, listening to the birdsong when the little shits get out of their tent on the far-side of the lake and a booming voice immediatly comes over the tannoy:
"YOU ARE ON PRIVATE LAND. LEAVE THE SITE IMMEDIATLY! YOU ARE BEING MONITORED BY AUTOMATED SECURITY SYSTEMS! LEAVE IMMEDIATLY!"
I swear to God I was waiting for "YOU HAVE 20 SECONDS TO COMPLY!", and the sudden appearance of the ED-209.
Which wouldn'y have been too bad a thing as the little shits would have been gone at least.
