MR & MRS SMITH.

On the 22nd of October 2010 Smithy and Flic got married.

I had the honour of being the driver for the day. (I even got a hat).

It was a beautiful day, starting at a little church in Manly.

(It wasn't the set of a 70's horror film - honest.)

Ahh the family shot.

All da boys were there.

Ahh the blushing bride.

I dot a burnt head. (Factor 30 Ben - you live in Sydney).

And AJ does exist. - I believe you now Nige.

Nice look Omid.

Don't start a fight.

No I won't give you a life to the reception.

Come on we've got photos on the beach to take.

There we go.

Food time.

Claire so hungry she can eat her own hand.

That's Trent behind the visual effect.

Claire on the cake.

Outside as the sun sets.

Meanwhile the happy couple are singing.

Miss WIlkinson loves it.

The singing continues.

The best man (Chris) busting some moves.

The father of the bride (Ray) on the pull.

And then at mid night it was all over.

And the tears from Chris and Lucy

(Smiffy's parents) rolled.

Not long now until our big day.

I hope my speech is as half as good as Smiffy's.

THE FIRST BBQ OF THE SUMMER. (1950'S STYLE).

Matt, Em, Carolyn and Jodie chillin by the pool.

The future Mrs Akers full of smiles.

Bring on the summer.

What a beautiful day, even the wildlife seems happy.

FRIDAY NIGHT- FEET IN THE SAND.

On the way home I went down to Redleaf for my first

"feet in the sand" moment after the winter. Awesome.

THE INSIDE BBQ.

You think we might have learnt from last year -

when we tried to have a BBQ in the Bank Holiday

weekend, only to be washed out. But no we tried again.

Only for it to rain again.

So we moved it indoors. And everyone still turned up.

The boy ban (and Cand.)

Ian spinning the wheels of steel.

Russ doing the "Shower Dance"

(long story and you had to be there).

Claire certainly was. Strutting her stuff.

Nice people.

MC Ian in da house.

More nice people.

Claire is not drunk. I repeat Claire is not drunk.

(Cand might be.)
