15 years ago today ...

... When I let it be known at work that the reason I was taking time off was to get married, a woman came up and asked me "what will we call you when you get back?"
"Morgan" I said.
"No silly, what will your new name be?"
I twigged, "I'm not changing my name, I'll still be Morgan Mouse".
"Well why bother getting married then?" and off she stomped (she was a VERY strange woman - I once almost crushed her in some compatus, she didn't hear me call out "anyone there", because, I was to discover that very afternoon, she was deaf).
I couldn't really answer why, still can't really except that it seemed to be a good idea at the time.
I was quite certain, however, that it wasn't so I could change my name to Brown. I'd have had to marry a Mr Mucus or somesuch in order to be tempted that way!
To mark the event we shall be dining at Becasse, because (hehehee) the Boathouse is booked out for a private function (bastards).

H&B - all the *best* people get married in October - glad to be a reminder - puts the pressure on for me to remember! The very morning, and Mr Brown was wandering out the door to work, I just managed to get a "oh, happy anniversary boyo!" out. Whew, doesn't do to forget these things.
