Joyce was always one for traditions. My wedding was no exception. Joyce lent me her garter to wear,which was white and blue, that she had worn on her wedding day. When we had come out of the church Joyce wanted to see if I was wearing her garter. So I had to lift up my dress to show her that I had to actually pin it to the inside of my dress as I couldn't get it above my knee! Joyce burst out laughing about thighs being too big. For many years the family had joked about Joyce's legs after she had turned up to meet Dave wearing hot pants in the early 70's. She certainly had the last laugh that day! xxxx
