Oh, and a word for the soon-to-be Mrs Monty
We've had some serious political ding dongs over the years, but last night she relayed a WhatsApp conversation with some of her appalling lefty friends, during which they were discussing the election and she told them I was voting Tory - something I know she'd have been nervous about because these people are quintessential "all Tories are evil" cretins.
Anyway, they responded as you'd expect, asking how the hell she could be marrying me, yada yada. It was a private conversation and I'd never have found out if she'd joined in. But she then read out what she'd written in response, which was a full-throated, extremely well articulated defence of me, and it fair made me well up with pride.
Reader, I married her :love:
