My son James and his finance Sally got married on Saturday at Pendrell Hall, Codsall Wood near Wolverhampton. It was an absolutely splendid day, everything went well and was day to remember.
James and Sally invited me to perform a few songs as Plinky Plonky Pete which was indeed an honour. I chose three songs on the theme of love, “L-O-V-E” (by Nat King Cole), “Can’t Help Falling in Love” (with a reggae strum in the style of UB40) and “All You Need is Love” (by The Beatles). I performed on the terrace to the 30 guests which is in line with the current restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Initially I was a bit apprehensive about performing outside since the sound doesn’t seem to travel as well and can tend to get lost. However, I needn’t have worried, my performance went really well with everyone joining in with the singing. The guests thoroughly enjoyed my set and I receive a round of applause with shouts for an encore.
