    Hey Birdie

    So glad you are back. The hols sound very exciting, a great idea to go there first and try it out. For the wedding it will be so nice to have all that glorious weather. The budget doesn't sound too crazy to me either - we are also looking at between 5k to 7k. Nevertheless my mum thinks that is a scandalous amount!! Although we might have to plan the wedding for 2011 if the house goes through....

    Can't wait to see pictures!!! A floaty dress is what you were planning anyway so not too big a change there. 3 week honeymoon sounds GREAT (could do with one now tbh)

    eta - well done Dinah!

    I want a Giles Deacon scarf! Don't even know what it is but I want one! The link you posted won't work on my work PC, stupid work!

    I've just been checking out the Universal Studios website and there's a new rollercoaster where you pick your music track and it records you all the way round and then you get the 'music video' at the end! How cool! Although it looks like the Indiana Jones show has been replaced by another one... I'm not sure how to break the news to OH!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    The link is to the bunnys facebook page, the place giving away the free scarfs changes roughly every hour, so it updates on there. I can't believe I got one so fast, some people have been trying for two days!

    What do people think of these as a bit of an alternative to flowers? although probably have flowers at the base like these do.
