Just married!

We got married today!

We tied the knot at Stockport town hall at 11am. Then we went to The Oddfellows in Mellor for lunch.

All very low key, no guests or anything, just the way we wanted it.

Life is so good, I can taste it in my spit.

Welcome to The Marple Leaf

I'm Michael Taylor and this is my blog from Marple; where Manchester meets the Peaks. I live here with my wife Rachel, where we have raised our five sons. I've been doing the blog as a random collection of local issues and personal obsessions since 2006, covering things like telly, music, food, politics, mountains, football and trains. I write, play music on the radio and do various other bits of voluntary work, but this blog is for everything outside of work, really. Oh, and I had my debut novel published in 2015. Please feel free to post comments, but keep it clean.

Our simple life

Don't worry about genius and don't worry about not being clever. Trust rather to hard work, perseverance, and determination. The best motto for a long march is "Don't grumble. Plug on."
You hold your future in your own hands. Never waver in this belief. Don't swagger. The boy who swaggers - like the man who swaggers - has little else that he can do. He is a cheap-Jack crying his own paltry wares. It is the empty tin that rattles most.
Be honest. Be loyal. Be kind.
Remember that the hardest thing to acquire is the faculty of being unselfish. As a quality it is one of the finest attributes of manliness.
Love the sea, the ringing beach and the open downs.
Keep clean, body and mind.
Sir Frederick Treves, September 1903, Boy's Own Paper, quoted in The Dangerous Book for Boys by Conn and Hal Iggulden
