    Birdie I'm sure everything will be fine by the time you get married - the fact that the problems have been highlighted by watchdog now, means that Thomas Cook have time to sort out any problems well before your wedding. Keeping my fingers crossed for you that this is a positive thing, not anything to worry about.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
    I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/2017

    My SIL showed me them a couple of weeks ago, they're cute aren't they?! Not sure what I'd do with them though... I could put little presents in them for the wedding breakfast I suppose as favours, I've already got bracelets for the girls that I was going to put in the OOT bags, but what would I give the men? Hmmmm.....

    98 days to go! :j

    They're quite small so I'd need a lot and they're quite pricey... I'm getting really tight as money is running out quickly! We still haven't got the party venue sorted. Everyone I ask keeps saying, 'It'll be sorted' but it isn't getting sorted!!!! I might speak to OH about moving it back to April. It'll be less stress straight after the wedding and it might be easier to get the club at the end of the season. I just don't know how I feel about putting my dress back on 8 weeks after my wedding, I won't be a bride any more, just an old married lady!

    I can't believe how close the wedding is either! Exciting but scary! As soon as Christmas is over it'll be my Hen Party, then we'll be getting married! It's OH's Stag next weekend, it seems like no time since it was organised and it was 'ages' away, now it's here!

    yeah if you need a lot they would be pricey!

    why dont you do it in march then? enough time to organise it after the wedding but not too long after.

    I think the problem with the club is that we want it in March, at the height of the season. There may be fewer games on in April so we'll have less hassle actually securing the club and being able to get in at a decent hour. It also gives us a little more time to find some extra money to put towards it! But I suppose how much difference will a month really make? Argh... I don't know! I want my Mum! :o

    She's away 'till Monday in Florida, hopefully she'll have gone to the Dollar Tree again to get more cheap decorations! I don't like it when she's gone, I miss running home to see her when I need a Mummy Cuddle, and I've needed loads this week! Typical!

    You're telling me! My first dress fitting is next month and it feels like yesterday when I ordered it!
