Drum roll for Nick ("The Hornet")

Which in turn reminds me of a wedding I went to on Grand Final Day in 1997. It also happened to be in Adelaide, and it was the first time Adelaide had made the grand final - remembering of course that the Aussie Rules competition here brings participating cities to a complete standstill. The bride turned out to be football-hostile, but it didn't stop scores being loudly "whispered" during the actual ceremony, and quite literally as soon as the vows were exchanged a TV was wheeled into the church and all eyes went from the happy couple to the teev. The bride, realising she was up against the tide of humanity (which included the photographer being glued to the screen as well) resigned herself to her fate and went to the church kitchen for a cup of tea. The groom joined the rest of us and completely ignored his new bride. It was probably the most memorable wedding I've ever been to (other than my own of course).

Even better, Adelaide won. Big Grin
