Which brings me to my daughter's civil partnership. I found it offensive that on the wall of the registrar's office, apparently a fixture that had been there for years, was a notice stating that a marriage could only take place between a man and a woman. I was happy with the ceremony itself (though I would dearly like to know who handed the meerkat hand puppet to a certain person), but the rigorous divide saddened me.
I wrote a jolly curt email to a registry office about that. Apparently there is no current regulation requiring its display, and the registrar couldn't fall over herself enough to apologise about it; it disappeared forthwith.
