    My grandparents would never forgive me! :eek:



    I spy a candidate for "Don't Tell The Bride" - £12k and three weeks, anyone? :D
    Don't tell them!:p

    I reckon £12k and 3weeks is easy consider I did £1k in six weeks - half the time but 12 times the cash - easy peasy lemon squeezy non?
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    omg! i would love it. but clearly have to write lists for OH - and give him a picture of the dress he has to buy etc!
    did any of u watch it last week with the girl,Ayca and Jonny on? They were in the year below me, and he is a compltete !!!!!!! the show showed that she like it all - but a couple of little birdies told me she was crying in the toilets n not very happy at all! :eek:


    I'm way too controlling to allow anyone to organise a wedding for me. It would be fun though to see what OH picked for me. I think he thinks i'm a size 10 so I dread to think!

    We are aiming at the end of February Mooki ;):D


    LOL - one of the songs that Tim Minchin was singing last night was about how he tries to be a modern day bloke and respect women etc and then the chorus goes 'f00k I love boobs though...'

    Hubby is now wetting himself because I am sat here singing 'f00k I love boobs though, they are so lovely'

    :o

    Should be interesting if it is still in my head next time I am in the supermarket!!!

    Oh yes, sorry, I remember you saying now :)

    I couldn't do it. OH reckons he could, but how does he know what I want when even I don't know?! :confused:

    Blurry pic of the ring I was talking about earlier (sapphire with a diamond either side - dark blue cos I love my dark blue jeans! :o).. I love it :D

    I'm a huge fan of polka dots so this one's like my wedding ring in the yellow gold:
    http://www.smoochrings.co.uk/index.php?option=com_rsgallery2&Itemid=26&page=inline&id=54&catid=3&limitstart=7

    Its inscribed on the inside with 'happily ever after'!

    OH's is inscribed with 'today, tomorrow, always'.
