    Forgot to say the TREK ones are nice too but not sure on the difference in calories. x
    Ths signature is out of date because I'm too lazy to update it... :o
  • Well I have written out most the names (and addresses on those being posted) on my evening invites. I just need to confirm a few possible plus ones with oh and write ohs work friends (all their names our on his laptop and I couldnt be bothered to get that!).

    Melanie- as your moving and dealing with redirecting post if I just put a couple first names on an invite would that be directed ok?? We have friends who have just moved away and are renting their house out but my friend said to post it to that address but I just wanted to check it would be ok as I dont know his girlfriends surname!

    Morning Emma. Quick one from my phone whilst still in bed!! Sorry tmi! Redirected mail works by surname I believe. At least they charge per surname. It does state they will use any combination of first name. I would perhaps Mr Joe Bloggs plus Jane on the envelope.

    I wrote all sorts on my envelopes - joe and jane blogs; joe blogs and jane smith; joe, frank and emma blogs and jane smith. :) But then I still don't know if they have all been posted as I've only had 2 text to say they'd received the invites but no RSVP (!!! What is that all about lol), and 2 RSVPs from all the ones I posted.

    Wedding shoes flash :)
    So these are my 'boring' wedding shoes. Ridiculously high heel - 11.5cm :D They look pale in direct sunlight so definitely need to hold them up to my dress in the same light before committing myself to getting them bleached. I do really like them. Honest!

    I'm jealous of your heels they look great, I don't think I will be able to have heels as me and the OH are practically the same height in 5' 7 and he is just about 5' 8! And I don't want to be taller than him on the wedding day!

    See I am very lucky ha!! I'm only 5ft2.5 and MrD is 6ft1 :) In these I'm just the right height and won't have to strain my neck to kiss him.

    Well what a boring Sunday I'm having!! So far I have cleaned the lounge, bedroom, and bathroom, and I've put one load of washing on. What a waste of a beautiful blue sky day! I'm now sat here on the sofa with our french doors open - love the fresh air coming into our house :)

    Meant to say - if I can get away without getting them bleached that'll be best cause then afterwards I can get them dyed a different colour (probably red :D) so I can wear them again.

    Sounds more fun than our day, we have been train spotting and then on the way home saw some helicopters now off to buy vegetables - wow what a fun day lol.

    Natalie- my envelopes vary name wise aswell. Thanks for that info Mel, I think I will just put ie John Smith and Jane.

    Natalie- I love the shoes. My oh is only 5ft 8, but im only 5foot so I think we have quite a nice height difference.

    Ive done nothing so far, I suppose I should do some housework while oh goes suit shopping this afternoon.
