Glasgow Airport hero Smeato marries
18.07.09
Glasgow Airport car bomb hero John Smeaton - affectionately known as Smeato - has married his American girlfriend Christy MacPhedran at a historic Scots castle. Living with his parents and on a fag break at the time of the attack, he helped tackle the car bombers then famously told TV cameras 'We’re ne havin this. This is Scotland. We’ll see about ya.’
The couple met when he was on a trip to New York after the attack. They wed in a candle-lit ceremony in the chapel at Balgonie Castle near Markinch, in Fife. After the ceremony he said: ‘It might well be raining but this is the happiest day of my life. I thought I'd be nervous but I was remarkably calm. We've not really planned a honeymoon as such. We're just going to do some family stuff and maybe get away for a couple of days and visit some whisky distilleries up north.’
