  • LauraR- sending you a big massive hug. Im so suprised, you both always seemed so happy when you talked to eachother on facebook. What a time to tell you though, bet if put a downer on what should have been such a happy day for you as a family.

    Your 2 boys are so gorgeous though im sure they are probably keeping you busy and helping you get through this

    Same as Wanchai says, pm or facebook or talk to us on here, we will miss you not being on here (but I fully understand you may not want to come on here too much as it may feel like a reminder of what has happened).x

    I absolutely agree with Emma, LauraR - your boys are gorgeous and they will definitely help you through this. I know it's hard but just remember it isn't a reflection on you. You know where we are should you ever need us.
    ((hugs))

    Nothing to report from me - busy at work with preperation for November exam season! Hello to Mel . . . i hope its all working out living back at home and saving lots!

    Ah it's going pretty well so far, managed to save up a fair bit but still a long way to go towards a deposit :( Still at least it's moving in the right direction now.

    As everyone has said on here we're here if you need us but understand it's hard. My ex husband left me when my youngest was 14 months old so I know exactly how empty, shocked and stunned you feel. It's not like a reality. You have 2 beautiful boys that will be your strength every day forever. Look after yourself and remember to take time for yourself to deal with it all. Xx
  • Thank you all. im still in shock he has no idea what he wants but its killing me! im very lucky to have my boys here they keep me smiling and happy! x
  • Hello!

    :jIts Friday! This week has been so long im so glad I only have 3 hours left at work!!

    Wanchai- how was your littlewoods dress? Im sure I saw on a different thread you had ordered a dress from littlewoods.

    I think tasks for this weekend will be finish the last few invites, find my camera and share some photos and I think ill sort out my photo charm for my bouquet aswell so that mil2b has it there and ready for when she does my flowers. She managed to ordered in the roses I wanted for my centrepieces (they only had a few left and she wasnt sure if they could get more in) so thats another thing sorted.

    Checked my budget spreadsheet earlier and it all seems to be on track, my nan has said its her 'thing' to pay for the cake
  • just lost my post i was writing :mad:

    I have finally made a decision on the evening buffet. I am going back to my original plan of a cheese-wheel cake. Due to costs from venue 1 we had to scrap evening food and were going to rely on a wedding cake instead (they wanted £1100 for cheese and crackers only) but this venue is much more reasonable and they do savoury cheese and cracker deals. So i'm have a cheese-wheel cake and the hotel have suggested i have a red cheese cut in a heart shape to stand upright on the top to double us as a cake topper! I like that idea.

    Now do i still have a wedding cake as well??? I was planning on a M&S plain iced tiered cake and then i can decorate it myself with coloured ribbon to match my colours and then i was going to stick little buttons randomly all over it. What do you think about serving cake as well? Is it necessary? Will guests expect it? I'd hate to see it all wasted at the end of the night as i would feel obliged to eat it!! (Diet has been off plan for 2 whole weeks now and my wedding dress is whispering to me - "you are never going to get into me you fatty!!")
