A ROUND OF APPLAUSE PLEASE ...........

And the winners of our Silver wedding anniversary caption competition, in no particular order, are ..........

• Rob Falconer
• NRI Girl
• John McElveen

All three of whom will win a small goodies bag as presented to our guests.

Some interesting captions, thanks to all those who contributed. If the winners can get in touch with me by this Friday (the 9th of December) that would be great. My e-mail can be found by clicking on my profile or you can leave your e-mail address in the comment box below. Sadly if I do not hear from you by Friday my panel of esteemed judges will pick another winner(s).

As you may know this caption competition originally formed part of our 25th Wedding Anniversary party entertainment, as a bit of fun I thought I'd post some of the thoughts our guests had on the night. Also posted are my blog winners captions which are highlighted in red.

That's how I met your mother! The End! - NRI Girl.

What's Star Wars? these are my relatives.

May the 'farce' be with you.

It's behind you!

Does my bum look good in this?

After seeing the catering bill, Tracy and Neal decided to leg it.

Quick, dad's got the shotgun.

No, Honest--That's the ONLY part that's the real me!!!!!! - John McElveen.

Are you sure your a doctor?

How much!!!!

I've met a few horrors in my time but!!!!!

You want my hand in marriage? Yes, I won't be needing the rest of you.

William And Kate, The DVD.

There, George - that'll show you it's not only men who can organise a barbecue - Rob Falconer.

She should have read the dress label said highly flammable.
