A bit of an appeal (don't worry we're not going to dust off the totaliser). All we want is your wedding speeches. We can make them completely anonymouse and we'll lodge it into our wedding speech library, so that other blokes can rip off the sentiment/nob gags that you lovingly crafted.

Consider it the ageing equivalent of giving each other a leg-up so that you could watch the football over the wall, before the ol' caretaker caught you and chased you with a broom. Wait, that was the Beano. Anyway, please send your wedding speeches to:

info@iamstaggered.com

 

Many thanks from me (Shan) and the entire Blue Peter team.

Who is this Dutch lady of the phantom limbs? By the look on his face, I'd say she has her invisible hand in old Noakesy's pocket.

Peter Purves! I'm starting to doubt your BP fan credentials.

I mean, I would, had you not glued all those pictures of your face on the body of any man standing next to Janet Ellis in that old annual I found in the office.

You can have mine, after I've used it of course. I promise not to get it soiled with wedding cake.

I've not written mine, I am trying to work a way around having to translate it into Spanish. Is it rude to just have my speech aimed at the anglophones in the audience?

Not at all, and besides if you SPEAK LOUDLY AND CLEARLY AND NOD YOUR HEAD AND POINT A LOT then everyone will understand anyway.

You're welcome, there is no charge.

Perhaps you'd have more fun pretending to translate each section of the speech, when in reality you'll have written a seperate speech for the Spanish speakers full of bawdy jokes, leaving the English speakers confused by all the laughter.

I think that you should somehow employ some kind of subtitles.

I like the idea of two speeches just to confuse either side. But, I feel myself leanning towards just doing it in English for the benefit of the 25 odd guests making the journey from overseas and leaving the in-laws out in the cold!
