    Hey Natalie- Ive just had a look at the kick off is at 3, it is only a friendly so it may not be too bad- Plus ive never heard of that other team so they may not be that well known and so it may not be too busy. have you looked to see how close it is to where you are going shopping?

    Awww thank you Emma, lol I just saw it was a 3pm kick off as you were writing your post.

    I don't know Scunny very well at all so I don't really know how far away from the main stadium we'll be... lol all I know is there is a KFC near Scunny's football ground. But looking at it there is a smaller ground on the south of Scunny where this Bottesford Town play and it's there... but then I might be talking out of my bum lol. I was just reading reviews of the pub where I'm thinking of going and saw a load talking about being great for football fans after/prematch.

    I think we'll be fine :)

    Grrr, I just wrote out a reply and my netbook decided to close down!

    Natalie- im sure youll be fine, you are going early and they are only a small team- their ground only holds a max of 1000 so I cant see it making much difference to the roads/ areas etc.

    My little bouquet photo frame came today-its very sweet but very small, im not ill be able to shrink a photo that small, if I cant I may put their names or something in it.

    Awww thank you for your reassurance Emma - really lovely of you to search out information about them! It is *only* a friendly - so yep I'm sure I will be fine.

    That is a shame that you feel it is really small. To be honest though I bet it is the perfect size. You don't want something so big it interferes with your bouquet. I think you'll be surprised at how small a photo you can shrink :)

    Oh its a nice size otherwise if it was much bigger it would probably get in the way and be too bulky, its just whether I can shrink a photo enough. Ive just been looking and Ive found a picture that is quite small anyway and it would be perfect as its of them on their wedding day- but it is from a newspaper so im not too sure how it would shrink, but I think I could possible move them about a bit and put them closer and it could be ok, looks like I know what ill be doing on Sunday!! Haha- ill be on here sunday looking for advice on how to shrink it!!

    Oh im going to see take that on saturday so looks like we will both be counting down and then mega excited on saturday!!

    Forgot to say- Michelle that dress is lovely.

    LauraR- your sweetie table is going to look fab.

    If you struggle and want a hand - get it scanned in and email me it I'll have a play with it. :)

    Lol whatever you do when you go to see Take That - don't get your boobs out!

    God how are we going to sleep on Friday?! What were you lot like in the run up to dress shopping/finding?

    Haha Natalie- dont worry, I wont be getting my boobs out- not intentionally anyway- will have to make sure I wear a suitable outfit so theres no chance of any embarrassing popping out!!:rotfl:

    When I went dress shopping I tried not to get too excited- mainly because I was on such a tight budget I didnt want to get my hopes up as I really didnt think I would get anything and was thinking I may just have to try a few styles on and then go down the china route- luckily this didnt happen!!:D When we got to the shop I was looking through the rails and there wasnt much that caught my eye, until I saw my dress and I loved it, and although it was only £200 I was treated in the same way as those buying the £1000+. Its such a good feeling when you find the right dress and try it on and then looking in the mirror and liking what you see!! (ie the hidden corset proper pulls my waist in!!:D)

    Haha- I reckon it could be a late one on here on friday- both so excited!!
