Natasha's wedding

25 August 2011: We went to the wedding of Natasha Evans (Niece) and Philip Way in St Peters, Parkstone. This was a big family affair, with both families fully represented. We stayed in the Bournemouth seafront Travelodge the night before. It was a wonderfully happy event, with everyone dressed in their best outfits, and the couple truly in love.
There was a long reception at Sandbanks hotel after (where Tasha works), and dinner dance, late into the night. The hotel is in prime position, closest to where boats pass by, in and out of Poole Harbour. The following morning, those who were still around met again in the coffee lounge of Sandbanks before departing home. Phil and Tasha went to Mauritius shortly after for the honeymoon.
  It was great to see such a lot of family, especially Robert and Jane (Dobbie), and all the Coles. oh, and Rupert played the saxophone during much of the drinks reception.
