thanks guys - well it was all over yesty and i read out what i had above.
it was better than i expected and everyone really appreciated what i did as noone else got up and said anything (despite having 5 uncles and 21 cousins!)
i'm glad i did it - it felt right and special. it gave the ceremony "heart' as well as head (from the bishop)
thanks for your sympathies
i'm off to nurse a post-wake hang over.
