One of the really nice things about this job is the wonderful people you get to work with in the parliamentary complex. All the staff are great and work really hard, but our Labour team are truly fantastic and given the sheer amount of time we spend together it’s to be expected that they also become very good friends.
So yesterday it was really lovely to be able to celebrate the wedding of two such people. Deb works in our policy and advice team and James is now lawyer-ing at Chen Palmer. Both worked in our research unit when we were in Government. James was impressively calm, and Deb looked gorgeous.
It was a great day and a lot of fun catching up with friends that I haven’t seen or spent any decent time with for ages.
(I know I see Marcus all the time but it was the only photo that wasn’t blurry! Stupid blackberry camera.)
One of the really nice touches was a reading which one of Deb’s friends read during the service. It’s particularly appropriate given the time of year and so I’m sure Deb wont mind me linking to it here.
So from all of us here at Red Alert – Congrats you two and all the best for a lifetime of happiness together.
Congratulations to them I wish them all the best!
Great photos Mo.
There is a weird thing happening which has me being Marcus – I could cause lots of trouble. Congrats guys. Trevor
But then it shows as me when submitted – really weird
Congratulations to two great people.
