Congratulations on the wedding date FAY, funnily enough i have stripey socks on too.:)Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -

Sounds great Fay
I always wanted to get married in wellies
How fab
Money situation is looking good!Edna is nearly well and truly squashed! I say cut up the credit card and stick the PAD you've been chucking at Edna into savings account instead for emergencies
As for accommodation - what about a hostel?? I used to work for the YHA, and some of them rent out entire buildings as self catering... some of them are quite big! And this far in advance, and in October, you'd probably be alright booking them.. Not too expensive either. Might end up with a few relatives in bunk bedsBut there's usually a couple of single rooms at least, and if they don't like it they can book into a hotel!
