<p>After dinner David and Noreen were delighted with a &#8216;this is your life&#8217; style presentation.  A digital slide show was projected onto a screen at one end of the restaurant showing the many wonderful memories shared by the family.</p>
<p>We were so pleased that the event was enjoyed by the whole family &#8211; the following thank you was received from Julie and with her permission we are pleased to share her comments with you.</p>
<p>&#8220;What a wonderful time our party of 26 had at Alveston House Hotel on 11th February 2010.  We wanted it to be as perfect as it could be for our parents&#8217; Diamond Wedding Anniversary and it was. <a href="http://www.alvestonhousehotel.co.uk/Diamond_Wedding.php">Read more&#8230;</a></p>
