Town crier Chem and wife Jane mark golden wedding in style

* Chem and Jane, on the left, and their family thank guests for helping them celebrate 50 years of married life in the marquee at Plas Newydd.

Llangollen's well-known town crier, Austin "Chem" Cheminais, and his wife Jane put up a huge marquee in the grounds of Plas Newydd to celebrate their golden wedding yesterday (Saturday) evening.


* Guests mingle outside the big tent.

Over 60 of their family members from all parts of the UK along with a large number of friends from the town helped the couple mark their 50th anniversary in fine style.

Catering was by the team based at Plas Newydd while the bar was manned by members of Llangollen Fringe Festival.

A children's entertainer helped keep the younger guests entertained with games such as bubble blowing.

With close members of the family gathered around him Chem, a former town councillor and Llangollen mayor, thanked everyone for coming along to help Jane and himself celebrate the landmark occasion, adding that moving to Llangollen 14 years ago was the best thing they had ever done.
