    Any idea of what you want for favours (or could you get away without having them?!). Shoes - L K Bennett... (or if your feet are the same size as mine, tell me what you're looking for and I may well have it in my collection!) you've got LOADS of time :D and you're doing really well on your list.

    I need gold sandals but cant make my mind up (size 5) have seen some but not sure about them - any opinions welcome

    http://www.mrsite.co.uk/pprouk/cart.asp?domain=steppinoutshoes.co.uk&isblack=&siteid=steppinoutshoesco.uk&page=1057196&sitepage=4

    either the 3rd down or the 12th ones down (tried to do separate links but couldnt)

    These were my favourites but are out of stock online - SO IF ANYONE SEES THEM IN A DEBENHAMS STORE :Dhttp://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10001_10001_17806_855250_-1

    Favours I dont have a clue, cant be too big as need to travel in suitcase. Am thinking of getting lotto tickets for the date of the wedding and putting them in the special envelopes you can get but dont want a load of old tat that will be chucked

    ETA Love some of the LK BEnnett sandals but not very MSE for me, my 2 dresses cost less than half the pair I like :eek:

    L K Bennett outlet @ Bicester... that's where most of my shoes started their life :o

    Agree with you on the debenhams ones. If I wasn't going to be stuck at home reading contracts (except for my walk with sexymouse if her car's OK), I'd go looking for you... Otherwise the first ones...

    Favours - you've invited everyone, I don't think you need to give them presents as well. If you feel you have to, how about getting something locally when you're there, so it will remind them of the place as well as the day. Saves you carrying it too...

    Kaz I can look in our Debenhams on Saturday for you

    Just filled in two more forms now I have the probate through.

    I finished the book I was reading this morning so I could return it to the library and I'm not in the mood for starting a new one but will miss having it to read. Might go to bed and do a suduko thing - see I can't even remember how to spell it.

    I have

    binned 3 huge binbags of rubbish

    pretty much refilled the kitchen bin which I had just emptied

    made tea....ok zapped some stuff in microwave

    roasted lamb ribs in remoska

    put chickens away

    swept up the kitchen floor

    removed dirty washing from bedroom to washing basket

    emptied the toilet rolls into basket

    cleared the kitchen table

    folded some throws and blankets

    put some things back in the cupboard in kitchen

    realised I'd probably overdone it as getting back upstairs involved heavier and heavier legs with each step....now back in bed wreckaged :o...but happy that I got some stuff done.


    Pigpen....you forgot to mention your gorgeous, amazing friend who you found 3 streets away from you................HINT .......................its me!!!!!!!!!!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
