21st June 2008 Goughy and Emma's
wedding
After Goughy had invited Emma to 'Come One' down the aisle,
Emma's response...wait, yes, no, waiting, YES - the date was
set 21 June 2008 in Roath/Pen-y-lan where the pair had already
built their pavilion. The rain stayed away so the match went
ahead without interruption. The game started on time, with
both sides turning out (even usher Dan made it on time..just).
Emma lost the toss and went first on the 'I do's'. Both parties
proceeded effortlessly through the ceremony and then onto
team photos in the adjoining park.
The rain did arrive at the reception but by then all spectators
and Casuals were digging into tea and had far bigger things
on their minds - especially given the size of the cake. Mr
and Mrs Gough had a tour of the Glamorgan square, including
new team photos (on a length), before heading back inside
to finalise the match with cutting of the cake and first dance.
An extra supply of food was draughted in for the match after-party
as the onslaught of Casuals turned out. ...Numerous recollections
of past cricket matches followed, including Goughy's 'spanking
the kids' and his unique choice of 'match' language. The night
was rounded off with drunken conversations with the bar waitresses,
energetic dancing and the taxi leaving Fitzy behind.
A marvelous day and one which the pair (and the Cazh) will
remember forever. Congratulations from the Cazh.
