Best man coming to stay

Every year our best man (Pete) comes down from The Wirral to stay with us for a few days. He enjoys the bookshops in Cambridge. My wife and I will have been married 43 years on July 24th having got married in 1971. Pete is a perfect guest: he mucks in and helps. Like all good friends, we just pick up where we left off and it seems like a few days since he was last with us. He last came in November when I was still in hospital. I was so ill then I cannot remember him visiting me.

Pete was a deputy headmaster and a historian. He is very good company.
