On Saturday 23rd January 2010 Paul married his fiance Felicity Ventom.
The couple were wed at St Joseph’s Catholic Church here in Brighton, before the groom whisked his bride off on his bicycle (5 stars for environmentality, 0 stars for common sense) to the stunning Royal Albion hotel for the reception, which was attended by 300 guests (Paul claimed to know about half). The festivities continued into the late evening and various members of Phlorum were spotted strutting their stuff on the dancefloor after a brief introductory lesson in highland dancing. Rumours of spots at the Edinburgh festival are at present unconfirmed. Paul and Flick are seen here ‘dancing’ for the first time as a married couple to the Smiths, which was a great song of choice. Everyone present had a great time, and Paul is now on his honeymoon staying in a tent in Wales, partly due to the financial toll of a wedding, and partly as he believes in giving Flick an insight into the realities of married life as soon as possible.

We all wish Paul and Flick the best of luck as husband and wife. Congratulations!

Wind turbines in Cornwall

Today in 1991 was the day Britain’s first turbine wind farm generating electricity started in Delabole in Cornwall.  According to Environmentalists at the time it ‘was about time too’! After all, the British Isles are the windiest in Europe.  Although there has been plenty of opposition the giant white windmills still operate and many more wind farms have started since then.
