Oh I'm sure it'll be fine! Dont worry - I'm going to be optimistic n say nothing will go wrong for us anyway! The other policies were all mega pricey, so if you'd not recommended that 1 I probably wouldn't have bothered getting one!

If you're recommending them to anyone else though, if they enter your policy number apparently you get a £10 high street voucher! I didn't like to ask for your details given you don't know me, but it's worth bearing in mind if you recommend them to anyone else!

Welcome back Laura3. :jat sorting your cake, and sounds like youve got a great deal. The save the dates are lovely.

LauraR- the buttons are looking fab.

Insurance reviews- Im not sure many companies actually get reviews, when ive researched for house and car insurance before not many companies actually have good feedback!

Natalie- who is Tracey3???:D:rotfl:

I was naughty last night and ate some yummy tapas!! My favourite was potatoes with alioli- so naughty but so good, I ate loads of them! Oh and a jug of sangria!! It was my sisters 30th meal so we were paying a set price so I had to make the most of it!!:D

It did take me about 3 reads of the posts to realise it was laura3- Iwas trying to work out who tracey3 was!!!:rotfl:

Lauralou

Laura3 love your save the dates.

:rotfl:haha Natalie - i did know u meant Laura3!!

I have now turned my attention to centrepieces. Not 100%sure what i want yet, thinking maybe fish bowl with purple sand/or cystral/stones with little candles on top - would that look nice??

Went to OH parents last night and we were talking about OH changing Doctors to mine and said once baby is here OH can change and once we are married and she says ' your already married arn't you' Then corrected herself and said no its your cousin who just got married!!:rotfl:I wish we were already married! Then said i've now got chubby cheecks!:(:rotfl:

Well thanks to Natalies status about making soup ive just attempted my first ever homemade vegetable soup!! I eat a lot of soup in the winter but always get tins or fresh cartons!! And then pick out the carrots, parsnips, celery and anything else I dont like!:rotfl:. So I have made soup and its edible!!:rotfl:

LauraL- Im sure your centrepieces will look fab. Im having something similar- Im having a small fishbowl with pink crystals at the bottom, an artifical ivory rose and then some pink crystals on top!! Mil2b has some with purple crystals and I loved them as soon as I saw them!! Simple but effective.

Lauralou

Where did you get your fish bowls from Emma?
I make my own soup, i use potatoes, sweet potatoes, parsnips, swede, carrots. Its really nice and i dont even like parsnips, swede or carrots. At halloween i add pumpkin. I always make quite alot then take some to work the next day. Did freeze some once but it wasn't that nice

PinkPrincess83

LauraL- I havent got my fisbowls yet, will probably get them from where mil2b works. Ill probably have it on a small mirror plate with some scatter crystals. Oh and on out table Im going to have a couple of larger fishbowls- same idea but probably 3 roses.

I cant stand carrots or parsnips and hate it when its in soup- especially chunks of parsnips as you cant tell if its potato or parsnip till you eat it!!:rotfl:

I heart home made soup!!

To give me the protein though I tend to make cockaleekie soup all the time lol.
Serves 4:
400g of chicken
100g of pearl barley
2 leek
2 knorr chicken stock cube
1 bouquet garni
approx 2 pints of water.
Chuck it all (chicken whole) into a pan and simmer for 90 mins (yep ninety)
When it's done remove bouquet garni, remove chicken and pull it apart (flake it - I use two forks).
Serve. (or freeze).

I've done 7 batches - ate one the other 6 I've put in pots and bunged in the freezer.

LauraL I think those centre pieces sound fab!

i am kind of hoping the above is a link to invitations. I had a play with glueing on things on the front and created a different design on each side. Im not sure which ones i like best. I'm just a bit apprehensive about over loading it! I have only opened the gate fold slightly for one photo so i can hide my address printed inside!!!!
