    My indifference knows no limit.
    Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

      Bit like your self control.

          Is this acceptable? My friend is now ad libbing? Begining of speech, early handover from Father in law. (having just slaughtered FIL on handover)

          'In all seriousness, I'd like to thank X and Y and of course Volvo for that fateful night in the Z carpark in (insert town) 37 years ago for me being able to be here today?'

          Thats good right?

            Or just comment on their clean tracksuits. So white and shiny!

              Yeah, but the speeches are after the meal. They're bound to have puked snakebite and black down them by that stage.

                Still classy by usual standards. It's just snakebite not a new tattoo. It'll wash out.

                  Honestly MF, you, sorry, 'your friend' shouldn't try and be funny, it really will make a mockery of your best man. Stick to thanking the parents in law, telling everyone one funny anecdote about you and your wife (mine was about how we met), tell your wife how you're lucky to have her then sit down and endure 15 minutes of your best friend telling the audience some salacious things about you.
