    I never thought I'd say this but I'm almost hoping she doesnt change her tune so I can just cut her the hell out of my life for good...miserable cow

    Shame about your ring Dinah and NIM Mum. Dont know what to say about her.

    Been a quiet weekend here we went to Bath and Stonehenge on Saturday for a run out. Sunday - quiet one, slept for nightshift. Monday, OH went to Notting Hill Carnival while I slept for nightshift.

    That is a fair number of people for a draft guest list.

    Good thing that software will let you create two lists so you can have a day and night list.

    Wow that's a lot, don't think I even know that many people. Then again a while back I started counting just mine and OH's family and that came to a lot.

    We didn't think we knew that many people either, it soon adds up.

    I can't believe your ring has to go back, Dinah - how disappointing, I hope the replacement comes soon! Sorry to hear that NIM's mother hasn't improved - I guess you don't want to go into it in much detail. But at least he knows that her behaviour isn't acceptable and he's fully on your side, it's a horrible situation for him to be in too.

    No exciting news from the South East - enjoyed an incredibly sunny bank holiday which was unprecedented!! OH is on leave this week so he's launched himself into DIY heaven and is busily getting quotes for central heating, new windows, flooring etc!

    ETA: 225 people! That's loads :) But guestlist politics can be a nightmare!

    I need suggestions on how to calm down over this one, who knows a good relaxation method?

    Guest list nothing, mother. I've never been in quite such a bad mood.
