I'm not certain whether this should be above the line as it is the only wedding anniversary I have known with full length announcements in folk festival programmes, a weekend of song, performance and home cooked chilli!

So best wishes to RAY & VERNA (CONNOLLY) and the friends, catters and doggies who will be helping them to celebrate their leap year anniversary for the first time in their new home in West Cork.

An unfortunate, like myself who has other committments, will however be with you in spirit - preferably Jamesons!

Congratulations - see you at Upton in May
