I'm very excited. My best friend Steve, who's been on his own for a few years, has met a lovely lady and, after a whirlwind romance, they're getting married very soon.

I'm going to be the ''Best Man''.
Friends are saying ''Don't you mean Best Woman?" - and I tell 'em no, there's no such thing, traditionally. I regard it in a similar way to being a "Chairman" (I'm one of those, too, and woe betide anyone who addresses me as Chair, Chairwoman -- or Saints Preserve Us! -- the utterly nonsensical ChairPERSON. The role isn't gender specific.)

Anyway, I'm chuffed for them both and I need no excuse whatsoever to drink champagne. Cheers
