Happy Anniversary

Today is our 9th wedding anniversary. Kerry and I got married in Reading on this day in 2001 and believe it or not it's just a little before digital photography really took off (for me at least) so no digital photos. Will have to scan a few at some point.

Thought I'd revisit the places that made this day so memorable via the web:

• Reading Register Office (photo to the right - back in 2001 it was covered in scaffolding and no garden)
• Penta Hotel Reading (known back then as the Renaissance Hotel) for our brunch/lunch reception
• Eurostar to Paris

As far as memories go for our honeymoon, I can't remember the hotel or any names of restaurants we visited but we did all the normal tourist places including: Eiffel Tower (Kerry's vertigo got the better of her); Notre Dame; Pompidou Centre; Arc de Triomphe (very windy and wet); Louvre; Sacre-Coeur (artist portraits still rolled up in their tubes)

Sad news on this day
On this day today, Corey Haim died of a drug overdose. He was the same age as me at 38! This YouTube clip is possibly his most classic scene of him from The Lost Boys.
