July 2012 Brides and Grooms

OOh its like date wars!! The 27th is the best date by far . . . . opening of the Olympics, it will be remembered forever. No excuse for H2B to forget in the future!

Well nothing weddingy done this week so far but i have managed another run although the damn app kept pausing as i was running . . .i reckon i keep catching the screen and it pauses it so i only ran for 25 mins instead of 30. I also ran for longer than i should of but thats no bad thing!!

On another note our Landlord has informed us today that he is putting the house on the market so we have to move again. Only been in this house for 15 months but we have really settled all together and the kids like it but hey ho back on Rightmove again. There is a slim chance we can afford to buy it from him but we aren't really ready to buy until next year. Wedding is taking every spare penny and then some at the moment so H2B is in a moody tonight so i might have to give an extra big cuddle later.

Lol well I'm hardly going to win any date wars given that ours is on a Tuesday within term! I'm actually very surprised I have a date twin in workinginoz!

Mini-bridezilla moment - lol - MrD's mum showed me her outfit today (it's lovely) and then she was talking about flowers - lol my first reaction was she either wears the one I've made or she doesn't wear one at all. (She did want a reddy one - ie like MrD's one but I did say he's the only one who will be wearing that colour buttonhole - the rest are white lol). I'm really having to tell myself to stop being so pathetic - it really doesn't matter what she wears.

Nah 21st is the best date for remembering anniversaries - 21712!

Are you doing C25k? I'm doing that too I'm on week 2 run 2 at the moment!

Is there any chance your landlord might hold off putting it on the market if you explain the situation? He might be willing to keep the guaranteed income and the definite income maybe? Worth a shot perhaps?

Surely she can wear the white one, white will go with anything? Just tell her she won't match if she wears her own and she'll probably change her mind lol!

Well I have been good - just got in from swimming and I went to the gym last night, going to the gym again tomorrow and then it's zumba thursday. I'm amazed at how much energy I have now I'm doing all this exercise!

Evening everyone and thanks for the welcome! Have been helping my OH out with PGCE planning this evening so not had a chance to indulge my brand new passion - Pinterest! I've been looking at everyones boards for a while and finally got my invite today. I managed to pin a couple of things, will do more tomorrow.

In terms of colours we have scrapped Man City blue now. When I realised 14th July was Bastille Day I tried to get a France thing going because he proposed in Paris but that got a no too! (really, he has no imagination)

So, I found this and showed him it and he loved it!

Oh, and I spoke to the photographer today too.

It's great that other people are getting married on the same day! And yes, feel free to call me Alice.

Lol @ date wars!!! :rotfl:

MrsD - just tell your MIL that you've only made one red buttonhole and it's for the groom!

FC - shame about your house petal, hope you get something sorted without too much stress xx

Good news - my BM tried on her bargain £15 KG shoes and they're perfect!!!! She loves them. I'm soooo happy!!!!! Can't wait for my Coast Marlena shoes to arrive hurrah! Oh, this is a great day. I showed her the pearls that my mum lent me and she totally swooned over them.

Right, I am feeling very fat and yuk ATM, diet and exercise have been rubbish... I really need a kick up the bum from all you ladies

*whispers* me too - my biggest problem is at the moment all my clothes fit me, well all apart from one dress which I have to be proper skinny to squeeze into. Haven't done any running either since last Friday - was supposed to go on Monday but it's so bloody cold out there and I'm so tired from work at the moment. Argh!

Alice - those are lovely colours

Welcome to JCG as well, hope we both find a videographer lol! Good to have you here my lovely.


Thank you! Thank You! Thank You! Yeah! I'm gonna arrange to meet this fella from Coleraine. I'm gonna be a tad cheeky & ask to see the wedding vid that he did? His sample was good but I need to see more .

Yes i am attempting the C25K. I have never run in my life so it is an effort. I am so unfit so i am repeating week 1 as only could manage 15 minutes of the running/walk bit so this week i am upping that to include another 60 second run on the end before warm down.

Unfortunately the landlord is aware we are getting married this year and he knows that we would consider buying as we have discussed it with him before but we can't until 2013. However he needs his equity out now to buy a house in his new town.

Love those colours together, almost an Indian summer look. Always a good day when the OH agrees with anything weddingy! :rotfl:


Woohoo . . . I did a multi quote. I am practically a computer genius. I have received my invite from Pinterest so i might have a look around it later tonight. I can't access it it at work which is just as well or i may never get anything done.
I have to say i do have a mini grump today. Didn't sleep well at all worrying about having to move house again and moving the kids. It will be our third move in 4 years

Hello all

Went for my first session of laser lipo at lunchtime (via Groupon), it was grand but then I came back and ate a Mars bar. Gah!!!! Must. Do. Better. Can't wait to see if it has any effects - I'm having six sessions altogether.

When oh when are my shoooooes going to arrive!!!! :rotfl:

That's not a problem, is it??? :rotfl:


FC, sorry to hear that you're stressed, I'm sure this LL situation has really annoyed you. Wish he could be a bit more understanding/patient with you, that's a shame. Ah well, it might not even sell with the market the way it is! Then you can pounce in 2013 after he's had to reduce the price! :A

Hope Pinterest manages to take your mind off it - enjoy :D:D
