To Infinity and Beyond...........


This posting is not about a new Toy Story film.............................

but rather is to mention that this week a Japanese firm - First Advantage - announced it will start accepting reservations for couples that want to get married by rocketing into space to exchange their vows.

Each couple would pay JPY240,000,000 to recite their vows inside a small space capsule with up to three guests some 60 miles above the earth. I guess that might be cheap compared to some Tokyo wedding nowadays, but certainly not within every one's price range.

First Advantage is able to offer this new product in conjunction with US based Rocket Plane, launching from a private airport in Oklahoma.

So put down that bridal dress magazine and start sizing yourself for that space suit.

All the best......Mark
