A Real Morse in our Jag

Morse
Our Morse look-a-like Jaguar was booked by bride Catherine as a surprise for her husband to be Peter for their wedding in Henley. Catherine was very specific about the car she wanted as Peter's surname is Morse and he is a fan of the TV series. We picked Catherine up from Danesfield House Hotel near Marlow. The wedding was held at the hidden Holy Trinity Church in Henley then it was back to Danesfield with a happy Peter for the reception.

Deja vu
Only two weeks after our last visit we were back at Barton House and Lain's Barn, this time in the Daimler for Ruth and Martin's wedding. The family stayed at Barton House which is very close to the barn. I got to see a bit more of the inside this time. It is definitely worthy of being on the list for anyone looking for exclusive use accommodation in the Wantage area. After dressing cars in Ruth's choice of Burgundy ribbons we drove to St Margaret's Church in Stratton St Margaret near Swindon for the wedding. Their reception was held at Lain's Barn.

Boat Transfer
The Silver Grey MK2 was also working at the weekend providing transport for Judith and Ian's wedding in Warborough. The Jag made several trips from nearby Shillingford and Wallingford to take the wedding party and Bride to St Laurence's Church. After photos we drove the newlyweds to Cleeve Lock near Streatley where they picked up a boat to take them to the reception.
