    I don't know I go away and noone does the sleeps count down lol.
    Well we're back - feel sad - have been putting all our wedding bits and bobs on ebay. But happy at the same time cause they'll be going to another bride who can make use of them :)

    So a quick update:

    Hiya,

    At least you still have the summer holidays to enjoy but I think I can imagin how you feel. I keep wondering what I will do when we get back from our honeymoon. We have already booked flights to Rhodes for next Sept so we know we can celebrate our 1st anniversary there:rotfl:

    The only 2 other things I have for you very good list is Pension Providers & I was told the HM Land Registry(if you own a property)

    Cheers Fawny!!
    Yep pensions - done! :D
    And I had printed off the land registry forms before the wedding :)
    Silly I forgot these on the above list - will add them now incase anyone else is using the list :)

    The problem with school holidays are finding things to do lol. I'm bored of being a housewife already :)

    Lol Sweetilemon - I know how you feel. When we got back off our honeymoon we literally just opened the suitcase in the dining room and took things out as and when we needed them. So the dirty clothes were just strewn everywhere!! Well I organised/tidied everything yesterday, and today I've just put the last washing load in. And then it's all over.

    Having a few days between the wedding and the honeymoon I was able to get our thank you cards written before we went. (I made them when I made the invites so they are in the same theme as them - lol not that I expect anyone to notice given how long I sent the invites lol).
