    Deep breath Val! 50 euros doesn't sound too much for a food and drink shop, sod her having a tantrum, if no-one else has a problem with it being too much then there's nowt to worry about, see how she feels when she's on packet pasta and sauces and the rest of you are tucking into a big tasty meal ;)

    Hi everyone :wave:

    I hope everything is ok with your Chief BM Val. I think mine are ok now, I had a chat with them and here's hoping this weekend will be ok. (its my hen do!)

    Wasn't it your hen do Sammy? How did it go?

    We've got all our final meetings organised now for next month so our diary is looking pretty full! I'm finding myself worrying about all the little things now like decorations and thank you gifts :rolleyes:

    I put on 1lb this week and know there's no way I am going to lose anything this weekend!

    Hi Ladies,

    Val - sorry to hear of your troubles - that sucks. Once your on your hols I'm sure everything will be fine. A bit of sunshine always cheers everyone up :) Where are you going?

    Sml - Yes it was my hen weekend...I think lol. I had just the best time ever....I think. Had one too many vodka and redbulls. We went to Bognor for the weekend and it was so much fun. I can't remember the last time I went out on the lash 2 nights in a row - I think that's why I had so much vodka and red bull!! Did the usual L plates, tiara, veil and generally silly stuff on Sat night. Played a few games in the apartment as well which resulted in me drinking a lot of straight vodka shots _pale_. There were naughty boys in the apartments next to us as well which was fun lol

    If anyone wants to see my piccies they're on Facebook :D

    So has anyone else had their hen dos yet, or if not when's yours and where are you going??

    Glad to hear you enjoyed your hen do Sammy and that you love your ring :D

    May I come on hols with you val? It sounds luurvly

    The ickle baby sounds cute :) How long do you reckon it'll be after you're married till people start asking when your having one?!? My bets are on someone mentioning it to me on the day.

    I have to mention that I popped into £land in Swindon and they had a load of new wedding stuff in, including giant party poppers! Definitely worth a look.

    Ohhh, and I've just ordered OH's wedding present :D

    lol, people are already asking me but thats coz they know I want one. Prob start trying a year after, although my brothers fiancee ordered her BM dresses last week and I had to warn her I might be pregnant, other half had to be picked up off the floor! hehe.
    His friend thinks it will be this time next year and Ill be pregnant.

    Im having a nightmare at the moment trying to decide how to decorate my cake, Might make a few up this weekend to try out some things...would help if I knew what I wanted tho :rolleyes:

    YAY I'm going to Altea!........lol.

    I think a year after is a good time frame :) I'm thinking of Feb next year after we remortgage :o OH is slowly coming round but don't tell anyone! I plan to tell everyone that we don't plan to have kids for ages so they don't bother us - naughty me.

    Yum...cake...I keep trying all these difference recipes and wonder why I'm not losing weight!
