Finally waltzed up the aisle with Caroline and the whole day was perfect, with so many friends and family being there to make it very special.

Among the people who had travelled literally several yards to be there were members of my old band The BOI - and we thrilled the audience with our reunion concert.

It was particularly great to have my son, Dan, as best man. His speech - complete with pie charts and graphs detailing his underprivileged childhood - was one of the highlights of the day.
