Young-at-heart Ronald was best choice for wedding
James Beattie certainly picked the right man to give him some advice on life when he chose his uncle to be the best man at his wedding.
For Ronald Hornby certainly had plenty of experience to draw from.
The Fermanagh man was an astonishing 96 years and 89 days old when he took part in the nuptials, making him the world's oldest best man.
But as our report today shows, Ronald was no grumpy old man.
He has a lively sense of humour, essential for any best man, and his speech helped to make a really special wedding day earlier this year.
Ronald bears out the old chestnut that you are only as old as you feel – and he feels a lot younger than his ripe old age.
