We got married on July 30th. We got made redundant on March 11th. The two events aren’t directly related but the latter did allow us to give more thought to the former.

We didn’t use the time to over engineer the organization. If anything it just confirmed our belief that important things don’t need to be difficult (apart from the rings, but that’s another story).

We’d been out of the UK for most of the time since March so it was great that so many of our friends could join us in Italy for a few days either side of the wedding.

Now we’re back in the UK looking for work but secretly still pretending we’re retired. Oh, and there wasn’t a punch up at the wedding, though there was this.
