  • i thought the couples wedding was lovely and they did show you dont have to spend ££££s and still have the wedding you want. the food did look nice.

    Not keen on the roadkill thing...but each to their own

    The coupon lady, thought that was ace....bet tesco dread her coming in lol. I did think she should have donated the £15 she spent on the lunch provisions, seeing as she didnt actually pay for the lunch she had...

  • Did he live by the sea? 'cos if he didn't, it'd be like eating feral pigeon (aka the rats of the skies) :o
  • I enjoyed the programme too. The couple with the little boy were my favourites. Interesting to see the wedding couple, we did our wedding for £1100:D, like a another post said we also have a cake maker and florist in the family, a friend did the photo's, and I designed my own dress which a local dressmaker made, I even designed my own wedding ring which was made by a local lady. Not sure I could eat squirrel, but have been tempted many a time to pick up a phesant from the road.:)

    The thing with road kill is that unless you know how long it's been there the flies might have laid eggs inside it, if it's laid there a for a while.

    I couldn't understand why the roadkill guy kept all the dead animals in his freezer complete with feathers/fur on. That's like storing things in lots of wasteful packaging. It would have made more sence to strip them down to just the meat so that he could fit more in his freezer.

    Maybe it was the feathers that were worth so much money :o
