9th June 2007 - Civil Partnership
Ceremony

We finally made honest men of each other at the Register Office, Southover Grange, Lewes.  Here we are coming into the ceremony, Alan accompanied by his sister Anita, Mark by his brother Lance, hidden behind Alan's mum, Vera.

Here we are signing the register (or pretending too - it was already done by this stage).

Our 'Best Lady' was Mark's cousin Catherine Walker - who did a magnificent job, and didn't lose the rings.  She is on the right of the next photo.  We're all looking rather red in the face - it was a very warm morning!
