Our wedding photos are now online for your viewing pleasure. Also, I’ve put more photos from the weekend on the photos page. And today we sent off Naomi’s visa application to the British High Commission. So get praying that we get a positive decision on that quickly, as we have a flight booked to Glasgow ...
