I am still getting over the shock of this announcement and the hangover from the do at the Victoria arms!    I first met Graham when he stepped in to help me erect my tent at Towersey about 20 years ago – I had a broken leg at the time. I have loved him and his singing ever since. It's good to see you looking so happy Graham and with such gorgeous wife!   We will miss your visits to Cornwall but wish you all the very best in Canada.
Thanks for a great do last night and for all your help, advice and songs over the years.
I wish you both a happy and contented future!

Graham King

There are some pictures of Mr & Mrs Metcalfe before and after tying the knot on my Flickr site http://www.flickr.com/photos/alcalaina/http://www.flickr.com/photos/alcalaina/

It was a "bit of a do", as they say oop north.

Thanks to everyone for all the great messages and good wishes ... we will definitely keep in touch, and visitors to Vancouver Island will get a warm welcome. Messages to Graham can still be posted here, because he will have access to t'internet (what is the world coming to!?!) or they can be sent to [e-mail] until Graham has his own email address.

(and which Peter in York wants the phone no? Send your email address and we'll let you know how to get in touch)

love and thanks to all for a fabulous do ... didn't they do us proud?

Mr. and Mrs. Metcalfe to you!

Even the sun came out! That really says it all. Great photos, thanks to Claire. Graham, you're a lucky bugger, (well someone has to put in a bit of verbal abuse!) and we are all thrilled. Just hope you didn't give anyone heart failure from the surprise element. So pleased that we have all met Lucinde, who still looked good after twelve hours in the Vicky Arms. See you back at the Oxford Folk Club when you can make it.

Our loss will definitely be Canada's gain. Hope you can teach 'em some proper songs tho' Graham!!
Hope to see you in Canada on our travels. You are a lucky man to have such a wonderful woman for your wife. Both 'go forth and prosper!'
Much love from Welsh Chris and Malc from Fir Tree Tavern days.

Graham - Hoped to catch you in the crowd at the bar at Whittlebury tonight to say all the appropriate things - but heard last night that you had a magnificent bash last week and you've gone already! (Can I have your corner?)

All best wishes to you both

All the very best, Graham, looks like you picked a good 'un. But sad to see you go - there's not so much of the Real Thing about that we can afford to lose even one!

Duncan--that's oot on the left coast. Best known as the setting for the old CBC TV series "The Beachcombers". Real estate is very pricey there by Canadian standards--you'll feel right at home!

Thanks for the promotion RTim, but even though "Canada's Really Big", even the Arrogant Worms admit, nay, celebrate our status as "The Second Largest Country". (Even with all the republics Russia has lost, it is still much larger in area.)

Welcome, Graham & Missus.
