Five Years of Marriage
Blogged by James Preece on 30th July 2010
It was on this day five years ago that Ella and I were married. It's been a great five years and I thank Ella for every moment.
I wanted to do something special for Ella this year so I sent some emails to some wonderful people who did me a great favour and used their musical skills to make some videos for Ella.
First up our friend Victor Lams, acclaimed author of Robot Love also known as Professor Whimsey was kind enough to write a song and put a ludicrous amount of effort in to making a video.
Then there's Dan from Popple. We've been fans of Popple for years but we don't really know them so they could have said "too busy!" especially because they do tours around the US and Kyle has a baby and Dan is getting married in October but somewhere he found the time to write and sing us a song.
Many thanks guys! Ella has a big cheesy grin on her face and you've made her day. I really appreciate it.
Ella - many thanks for the last five years. I love you so much and I'm really looking forward to the next five.

Tweren't nothing -- your marriage is worth more than a bazillion songs! And I'm really glad you both appreciated it. Congratulations and may God continue to bless your marriage for at least the next 105 years!

Congratulations. May the Lord endow your many more years.
Although I can't say "feel-good" bands like Popple are my taste.
