    Too many posts to quote in this thread that made me giggle :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    SW, I'm constructing a weddingy outfit at the mo, as my nephew is getting married on Saturday (I've been constructing it for quite some time :o:o:o) it might be slightly unusual because of the Polishness and all, but I'd love to go to an Indian wedding - had a day browsing the sari shops in West London a few years ago, and omigod, the colours and the sparkliness are *exactly* my style :j

    I am indian but have never worn a sari. Always get scared they will fall off. How do they stay on? When my sister married her ex it was a white wedding but for her going away outfit she wore a cute sari and her school friend had to help us dress her as we did not have a clue!!!

    Honestly i used not to go to weddings I could never understand why people would get together but now i think they are fun. You can dress up and dance to terrible music and have a laugh. I am going to find Mr Z's comments from yesterday and pm him. Hope he doesn't slaughter me but i am enjoying this. You guys are so nice. Glad Firewalker is here too. I love her she makes MSE safe.

    Mr Z please do read and partake in Firewalker's thread, you will be a great addition. I am not at all scared of you now. Scarey people cannot have such nice friends and i do like your explanations. Yay. Now must find that message after another cup of tea.

    Bob i want a chest freezer for the garage as my freezer section is very small. I am hoping it will persuade me to eat more homecooked stuff.

    Is everyone having a good day?

    If ever there was a misleading question- which could be misinterpreted in so many ways.:cool::rotfl:

    I am sure he won't slaughter you- although he is as quick witted as a certain psychological killer...Cannibal Lecter ...so you may not want a chest freezer in the garage:eek::whistle::whistle::whistle::rotfl::rotfl:

    Sorry i couldn't resist, it was the mention of slaughter...xx

    I like logging on here at times as it keeps me sane, although you may not think it.

    Today i am sorely in need of sanity, as the washing machine has kindly decided to play with my patience and broken:o:o To rub salt into the wound it also decided to flood the kitchen floor as well:mad::mad: Luckily i caught it as soon as it started- i had visions of insurance claim again_pale__pale_Which resulted in months of work from flood- of the last bloody washing machine.
    As they were of the same make, i have decided that this one can be fixed again-( under warranty) then i am selling it and getting a different one. Enough is enough.
    They may offer a new one, but that will also be sold, i now officially hate Hotpoint Aquarius washing machines.

    Funnily enough the frost free ( although heavily full of frost) fridge freezer is also a Hotpoint. I think that says enough- the signs are there, and i should be reading them loud and clear.:o:rotfl:

    End of rant.
