    Exciting times Wanchai!!

    Well this morning I have just reloaded our pre-paid master card with the money kindly given to us by MrD's parents as our wedding present. :) This means our diving and equipment hire is unofficially paid for (all we have to do is pay when we get there - but the money is not officially set aside). :T So in terms of our honeymoon all that is left for me to sort out is:
    * Extra baggage for our dive equip £20
    * Choose our seats
    * Buy diving medical insurance 90 Euros
    * Prebook carpark at Manchester airport £30
    * Change passport name £70
    * Load some spending money onto the card £???? No idea how much to take with us as we're all inclusive.
    :T Very excited!!

    How inconsiderate are our guests! Have they no idea we need RSVP's back and they should shopw at least a little interest in our weddings.

    Poor Erinna, isn't it awful having to hold them while they have their injections. Hope she doesn't feel to grotty, bless her. Shes a real cutey.

    15 more Fridays for me!!

    My bestest is coming round to the new house on Wednesday to strap me in my dress. I can't get it on myself and i desperatly want to see how much better it fits having lost a stone now since i brought it. She was with me when i brought it so i know she'll be honest with me. I am hoping another half stone will do it as i have so much going on in the next 15 weeks with her wedding, hen nights, meals out, weekends away etc. Life feels like 1 big eatfest at the mo! (I had a sneaky weigh in a day early and its another 1lb for me - thats over half a stone in 3 weeks)
  • :j:j:j:j About your dress being in Wanchai- Roll on Tues.

    :j:j On trying on your dress again next weds Mel. When are you moving?

    Natalie- I have no idea how much spending money to take with us on our honeymoon as we are all inclusive, I guess any money will need will be for bits and pieces (ie my oh always buys my mum a tacky magnet when we are on holiday) and any day trips we may go on! Oh I cant remember if I said but my step nan was insisting on getting us something and said she would send a cheque if it came to it (she isnt coming to the wedding), so I said if she did we could use it for an excursion- and she like this idea, so we are going with that.

    Have fun ring shopping, do you have any idea what your going for? I did the same, oh is only likely to wear his on the day and thats it so he got a cheap 9 carat plain band.

    Well Ive been good foodwise this week, but bad exercise wise and Im going out for dinner and cocktails tonigh, whoops!:D

    Well I'm still eating crap! :) And have been given far too much chocolate at work. Ooops!

    Well I think project "get the garden in shape for the wedding" is going to commence this afternoon - I think I may throw the lawn mower round just to get the top off the grass (It's grown sooo much already this year)... then each time I buzz it I'll take it down a notch.

    Operation GTGISFTW is now in full swing. I have done the first mow. Will do another buzz on Monday when the green waste bin has been collected. Mean while tomorrow I plan on tidying up the hedges - they aren't too bad just need a little trim. Then on Sunday MrD and I are tackling the tree/hedge stumps. :)
  • Right today is a new start for me I've been eating crap and need to stop so today's the day. I was given 4 sample cupcakes to try yesterday and yes I tried them all washed down with a bottle of rose what is wrong with me?!

    Best to start on a weekend then I find the week days easier I will be thin and fit in my dress I refuse to have it taken out which is what I will need to do if I carry on eating the way I am.
