    Love that poem Maz :)

    The wedding I was at a couple of weeks ago, the best man had put together a photo slide show (major panic on the day when Powerpoint wouldn't work :rotfl:) of mainly very unflattering pictures of the groom, accompanied by daft stories, it was really well done.. and he finished off with lovely pictures of the happy couple accompanied by UB40's 'I Can't Help Falling In Love With You'.... sniffle... :o

    That song was playing as my DD was born. Makes me sniffle too. Much better than the original version ;)
