    Have done the underwear mission - finally! :o

    dress wasn't ready as expected tonight - some beads needed securing, so I have left it at the dressmakers, they are "bustling" the back for me.

    Table plan/placecards all done and dusted. Haven't yet packed for honeymoon :eek: but I have a packing list..

    Beauticians tomorrow for facial, eyebrow wax, manicure & pedicure. Looking forward to that bit!

    serenawell: How cool, keep the papers - get someone to record the radio shows for you :D

    I'm feeling okay - I think!

  • Went to Dr's today to see if I could get they tablets you get
    when you do driving test but my blood pressure is too low (surprisingly). So got this advice

    Take a banana with me and eat it if I feel faint!
    Stand on my tip toes as it stretches calf muscles and pumps blood up the way!
    If all else fails and I think I am going to faint lie down and get someone to hold my legs up..

    That is not a joke he really said this! OMG people would think they were at a comedy show lol.
