            Well hopefully everything will all come good in the end. I would send them a letter (recorded) though so that you can say to them after the wedding that you voiced your concerns but nothing was done about it (if it's not) But if they take notice then that's great What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine..0 What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine..0

            Hello Ladies,
 Hope your are well, sorry i've not posted for a while just don't know where the time has gone. I've read back & sounds like we have all been very busy & Catherine sorry to hear you have been ill, hope you are feeling a lot better soon. Not long to go now for all of us, it's 4 weeks on Monday for us & only 3 weeks on Wednesday until we fly out to Pefkos:j which is when it all really starts. Guests are busy making their menu selections & everyone is happy to meet up on the Sat night night before the wedding to all have a drink together & then go for a meal, we though it would be a great way for everyone to get to know each other. At my parents next weekend & picking up my dress from the dressmakers, can't wait to try it again. H2B has the week of this week so his job is to get this cd sorted with music for the boat otherwise I will punch him:rotfl:Sorted out the table plan & just got to write out the place settings, I've done an odd one but I don't like my writing on them:(
 I was looking for something sexy to wear on our wedding night & I spotted this http://www.asos.com/Elle-Macpherson-Intimates/Elle-Macpherson-Intimates-Cloud-Swing-Chemise/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2234154&cid=4998&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=200&sort=-1&clr=White%2Fvista+blue&utm_source=google_product_search&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=google_product_search&WT.tsrc=Google%20Product%20Search but £85! is way too much, but I can't find anything I like as much now:(
 Hope everything is going well for you all. Fawny xMarried the man of my dreams - 10th September 2012, St Paul's Bay Lindos :jIt was amazing. 0 0

            Sorry, I've been MIA for a while... Stupidly thought I was nearly sorted for the wedding and could take a bit of a break then on Saturday I suddenly sat up & shouted "S*** it's 6 weeks today" :rotfl: Not sure how that crept up so fast!!
 Have chased the outstanding RSVPs this morning so fingers crossed should know final numbers shortly.
 I need to buy the final bits for the venue - just a sign for outside and maybe a couple of bay or olive trees for by the front door. These will then double up as gifts for our mums. I'm hoping to get them from Homebase using our Nectar Card points Then all(!!!) I have to do this month is finish making the seed favours for the daytime guests, make the pompoms for the evening venue, and assemble the centrepieces. Oh, and pay out all of the balances Then all(!!!)

Oh, and pay out all of the balances Anyone else feel bad seeing their "wedding fund" account balance deplete as final balances are paid? I've known what the money is going to be used on for ages, but seeing that bank balance go down is depressing me! I liked feeling rich when I looked at my statements :rotfl: Anyone else feel bad seeing their "wedding fund" account balance deplete as final balances are paid?

SO now I have to go to Birmingham QEH on thursday to speak with their neurosurgeons to try to find out if my shunt is broken (i.e., the tube was supposed to be in there, but has moved out of place) or if it's a random extra piece of tubing left in by accident!
 get well soon:kisses3: Married 29th September 2012 0 0
