wedding ride

last weekend a buddy of me celebrated his wedding. his girlfriend and he asked me if i could drive both to the register office and back. it was a honor for me of course. and so i picked up the bride from home and drove her to the husband to-be. the office is situated in the vault of an old castle. very nice spot there. the fleetline was the 2nd best lookin woman on this day. i took the chance to get some pix of me taken from the wedding photographer (later here).







































by the way it was the 1st time ever i worn a suit :-)
