I'd like to say a good few words

To tell you how we met,

A Christmas dance in fifty eight

Is one I'll not forget.

​

The boys from A-Class Westwood

And the Kensington road girls,

Would weekly meet

To move their feet

And practise twists and twirls.

​

And that was where I first saw her

The gorgeous Mary Brown,

From that day on

My heart was won

I'd never let her down.

​

So at eighteen we got engaged

We married then at twenty,

A wonderful life

A beautiful wife

Adventures have been plenty.

​

When Jason came he filled our world

With happiness and joy,

Our lives were made complete

The day we met our little boy.

​

As Jason grew throughout the years

Those precious moments meant,

Our little boy became a man

Into the world he went.

​

The pride we felt could not be matched

As Jason went through life,

And we couldn't have been more happy

Than when Jason met his wife.

​

Lucy we would like to say

A big thank you to you,

For making our son happy

And another reason too.

​

With Lily you have brought to us

Such overwhelming joy,

And such a perfect family

For our grown up little boy.

​

And so tonight to here and now

We're all here side by side,

With family and with all our friends

Who've come from far and wide.

​

From Yorkshire, Eastbourne, Surrey,

From Wales and Matlock through

To Sunderland and Poynton

And the Stourbridge lot too.

​

We thank you all for coming here

To share our special day,

But we really don't feel seventy

It's just a number, eh?!
