Today is our 47th Wedding Anniversary

---

This is at the reception, held in Clare's sister's house in Maghull, north of Liverpool. For a long time I thought I was working at a laptop, before recalling that these were not around in 1978. I think we are actually opening a wedding present.

Note the JD Vance look: I have not worn a beard since.

And here is our twenty-fifth wedding anniversary celebration, in February 2003. We had flown back from America to host this event at a hotel in the Lake District. The logistics were managed by Clare's sister.

I have no idea what I was doing wrong here.


I said to her this morning, pompously, "The way we celebrate our wedding anniversary, Clare, is by being aware of it."

A long pause.

"And that's why I haven't troubled you with any geegaws."

Well, that went well, I thought, weathering the glare.
