Wedding on Wednesday

Rosalie and David are getting married tomorrow (Wednesday).

I finally managed to find a card that does not include phrases like 'wishing you
long life and happiness'.

I'll be going up to Reading to see the family. It may even, fingers crossed, be
a happy occasion. Rosalie and David are both pretty special people. I have an
ever-increasing admiration for David. He has the gift of making other people
feel happy. When I phone, he sounds genuninely pleased to hear from me -
speaking to him, I understand why when writing radio drama you can put 'smile'
in the instructions. You can't see the smile on radio, but the voice sounds
different when you smile. I can hear David smiling down the phone.

A man who can make you smile when the woman you both love is dying - that's
someone special. I'm sure one of the reasons Rosalie is still able to smile is
David.

David does sound like a very special person. I hope there will be more moments of happiness than sadness for everyone involved tomorrow.
