March saw two sets of friends getting married. The first, my ex-next-door-neighbour, Gerard van den Berg to Lora, who grew up in Australia. They had a whole entourage of family and friends, who travelled from all over the world to join in the festivities. The wedding was held at Kirstenbosch, which I always find a stunning venue for weddings. It's so peaceful and really so beautiful. Their wedding was a ginormous party; actually the entire 10 days that they were here was one big party. It was fabulous spending so much time with them. And, of course, their Australian family...
The second wedding was that of an old school friend, Keith Horton to Ally. They're both from Cape Town and live in London now. They also had family and friends that travelled from all over to join them on their special day. Their wedding was in Wellington and I spent the night in a gorgeous little guest house with a few other wedding guests. We all had breakfast together, before heading home - I felt like I'd been away for a week. I actually woke up quite early and couldn't go back to sleep. I had a massive room to myself, with a lovely en suite bathroom, so I got up and made myself some coffee, crawled back into bed with my coffee and a magazine. Got up and had a 40 minute bath - it was great to have so much time to myself to just lie and contemplate the meaning of my life!
