The McEntree Wedding: 19/09/15

Our next blog turns away from 2599 being in the limelight, but still playing a very much prominent role in proceedings...sounds double-Dutch?? All will be revealed in good time! Some months previously, Paul had introduced me to his good friends, husband and wife-to-be Laura and Nick, who were most enthusiastic about the bus and its Northern Irish connections. So we were delighted to donate the bus to provide transport for their guests to and from their reception, many of whom hail from Northern Ireland.

We arrived in good time at the East Midlands Conference Centre, and left with a decent load for the church at Long Eaton, where we enjoyed a short break during proceedings before greeting the newly married Mr & Mrs McEntree and heading off with a full busload to the picturesque surroundings of the Trent Building at Nottingham University, where we were most privileged to be invited to the silver service buffet meal and celebrating the happy couple's new marriage. After a hearty three course meal (of which your blogmaster approved thoroughly), we set about getting some final photos with the happy couple and 2599, before passing on our well wishes and heading back to world HQ. Paul then had to indulge in the scandalous art of 'work' before we began preparing for our next adventure in less than 24hrs time...Showbus. Now that, dear readers, is a blog in itself...
