    What's Parker's Guide?
    I need some clever people to help me come up with funny wild west names, I've made a wanted poster for Richard 'The Rustler', and I'm making a wanted poster with me on 'for running a house of ill repute' so I need a name to go on it...

    Oh god. It begins.:eek::eek::eek:

    Poolie how do I handle this? :confused:

    We allow the Ladies of the thread to go giddy. Once they have been through the first 3 then you start making suggestions. I think we might need our own thread discussing alternatives to the suggestions on here.

    Firstly, pick a date! Until she does that and you are made to agree then not much can happen as it will decide when you can get churches, venues, pigs, guiness for you and soft drinks for everyone else.

    All you have to do technically is pay for the honeymoon so try and get Dinah away from the Maldives idea. We went to Greece for ours. Santorini with a very nice hotel on the rocks. Let me see if i can find the links.

    Did you purchase NIM online? Does he depreciate with age like everything else?

    Actually I have a better question, how come men get to ask a woman to marry her, then completely duck out of the entire planning process, but still whinge that its taking over her life or shes making it all girly?! Why do men never plan the wedding?! I'd be happy to relinquish total control of mine just to get it done provided I could choose my dress. I'm not looking forward to the planning part or the actual day, NIM has always known that, but I'll be happy with the end result. And get off my honeymoon - it gives me something to look forward to! We put asside £250 a month for holidays anyway, plus we have about £800 worth of Tesco holiday vouchers, that side of things is happening!

    Btw your photo site is blocked from work Poolie will have to look this evening.

    Well I chose him online so I think so! But he's like an antique (internally at least), and like all good antiques he appreciates with age as he gets rarer.

    Errr hang on. I was actively involved with our planning of our wedding. I wasnt involved with the dress or bridesmaid dress side.

    I got involved with ceremony and reception. I got told where we were going on honeymoon.

    Oh - watch out for the different prices for private parties compared to Wedding prices.
