    OMG YB congratulations!

    ...we're also thinking of getting married this year too! But its not 100% yet as we cant decide wether to get married or have baby first. I know you should get married first but im not sure how long i can hold out until trying again!

    We have been engagaed for a couple of years but have always put it off due to lack of money, debt etc, but now we're debt free we have no excuse and I think we would keep putting it off etc so this year it is!

    You do what's best for your and OH first Maria, it doesn;t matter either way. We'll have dd2 as our bridesmaid and she'll be 3 1/2 - cute

    Woohoo YB I can't wait to see the wedding piccies, am so pleased for you!!!

    Jen what you like! :P Men all want you.

    Mind you I joined match.com as a subscriber the other day, thing is all the men I seem to like the look off are in London, which isn't too far away.

    Was only £20 for 6 months though so thought what the heck!!! Not really looking cos still feel its too soon esp with all the games ex played (and is kinda still doing!) but might be nice to have a chat or drink with someone :)

    Yay Yukki congratulations!!!!!!!!!! just shout if you need any wedding jewellery lmao!!
    Blimey Jen-you are a man magnet this week! perhaps it wil be 3rd time lucky and the next bloke that asks you out will be the one.
    Good luck on Match Lilmiss-you never know, might be worth a trip to London?!
    Hi maria-my sis got married after she had her first daughter and she looked soo cute as bridesmaid, I dont think anyone looks down at unmarried parents these days. anyway-a baby is a far bigger commitment than a marriage in my opinion.
    Annoyed that bingo britain have changed their rules-now minumum withdrawal is £50 every 72 hours and you can't deposit then withdraw. Won a fiver on the bingo which I got £25 out off on a scratchcard, thought then if I bet it on roulette I could double it and withdraw , last time I get the dog to choose red or black lol...stupid beast :-)

    Aww Jen you've got the offers flooding in! Ashame you dont like either :(

    lol jen-glad you had a good night!!! and yes your facebook status are hilarious!!!
    Just read on another thread that when you do your scratchcards-whichever symbol you scratch off first is the amount you'll win...and it is! scratched off a fiver first and won a fiver-yay! give it a try!
    got to go to the wedding shop later to drop off the order and then i might pop out to see mum
