What a super pic, very St Valentine themed too with the red.
"So in love" is the song title which springs to mind. Congratulations to the happy pair(even though I don't know them!)
Liz
Wishing you every happiness could not happen to a nicer couple. Even though he killed my drums (private joke) All the very best Eric M Stutt
