Dear Dorab & Shenaz

cc: Relatives & Friends

Just dont know where to start as I was lost for words being present at your grand 25 Wedding Anniversary celebrations on Saturday 10th July 2010 which was bigger than most weddings with 500 guests which included unlimited VIP's as Rusi Dalhal mentioned to me and to go with this posh occasion held at the Zoroastrian Centre what more can I say but wanting to say 'THANK YOU' first of all for inviting me to provide entertainment at your occasion which I was honoured to be amongst all your wonderful family and friends whom fortunately I knew quite a few.

As for the pre dinner eats and the fabulous dinner was a  super treat for all and with all tbhe drinks flowing all evening what can we say.

Cabaret:- The belly dancer (sorry cannot remember her name) was just eye catching especially as she was a good looking girl with a good figure! To me the highlight of the entertainment was Elmar who sang Frank Sinatra songs wonderfully well. Elmar was just a super showman with great stage personality, full confidence and with a  dynamic voice. Only wish he would be singing with my bands Black Velvet and Velvet Touch and surely Elmar will be performing with us in the future ... if we can afford his rates.

I am so proud to be associated with you and your family whom I have met at unlimited functions and so proud to learn of all you do for your community where everyone are proud of you all. Your beautiful wife and daughters certainly add to the glamour and if you dont mind me saying ... in Zanzibar where I was born there were many beautiful Parsi girls so dont blame me for having an eye on the beautiful ladies.

As I had my camera with me and with permission, I captured some photographs where possible and you will not fail to see all the happy faces all having a grand time at your Posh Exclusive 25th Wedding Anniversary celebration.

Please click on the link below to view 154 photographs on Kodak Photo Album slideshow.   I have also taken some video which I will add later and in time send you a DVD with all the photos etc.

You are most welcome to send this blog to your friends and relatives to view the photos and it would be great if they could forwad me photos which I would add to my collection and add to the DVD which I plan to send you as a special gift for good memories. My email is bvents@aol.com

P.S. I was pleased to meet Freddy Mercury's mother Jer Balsara and his sister Keshmera and her husband Roger Cook and so proud I have a photograph with them, thanks to Rusi. We dedicated a song to Freddy Mercury titled 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love'. (Next time round I will post you a brief of music in Zanzibar with Freddy Mercury).  I mentioned it to Freddy's sister at the function. It was a pleasure meeting her and her husband Roger.

Wishing you and Shenaz all the very best in the future and the same to all the members of your wonderful lovelable family with a special message to your daughters ... stay young and beautiful as mum!

Regards
Benny de Souza
