. . . while I run off to get married. Yeah, I know: excuses, excuses.

In the meantime, here's a video by that great Scottish duo, The Proclaimers. This one is for Howard, who would have liked a Vegas wedding (in an Elvis Chapel), but has settled for New York. Thank heavens.

Edited later to add: At a wedding party thrown for us back in Chagford, Elvis (a.k.a. Nick Baker) made a surprise appearance and sang "Love Me Tender" to us...so Howard got his Las Vegas moment after all. (Nick, you're a prince.)
