Wedding Day – Chillingham Castle – 1st August 2009

14Sep/090

We finally did it!

After eleven and a half years, on Saturday 1st August 2009, Leela and I got married at Chillingham Castle, Northumberland!

The day started out looking pretty bleak, with heavy downpours over the entire North East.  However as noon arrived, the clouds parted over Chillingham just in time and treated us to a wonderful sunny day.

Leela and Sean

We had a fantastic day joined by lots of our friends and family and have many wonderful memories to treasure.  Thank you all for helping to make our wedding such a special day.

Our Dance

We’ve had so many photos sent to us it’s going to take me a while to sort through them – Needless to say, I’ll post a blog entry once they’re online!

The School With Just 50 Pupils – Newspaper Clipping

As there's a few scans of really old photos being uploaded to the St Bertelines School facebook group, I thought I'd ask my mum to try and dig out some old photos.  This weekend she dug out a newspaper clipping from back when the school first opened.

I've scanned the photo in and uploaded it to facebook, but as facebook tends to restrict the dimensions of uploaded images I've attached the full size image to this blog post for your viewing pleasure :)

Runcorn World - The School With Just 50 Pupils

This scan was taken from the Friday May 13th 1983 edition of the Runcorn World newspaper.

Enjoy! :D
