[STRIKE]Morning[/STRIKE] Afternoon Everyone

Phew! I'm exhausted! Spent last night and this morning getting car insurance quotes. Sooooooooooooooo boring repeating same details all the time. Thank God for comparison sites! Amazing how the quotes vary - £335 to £700+ :eek:

Pleased in the end to get almost the cheapest quote with Esure by going through Compare The Market. Much cheaper than going direct to Esure's website. And I get a Meerkat Toy thrown in :j

Was cross that Aviva had automatically taken a renewal premium from our Debit card. My fault really for not reading the renewal letter properly but managed to get them to refund in full. I really hate these continuous payment authorities. I try to cancel them or diarise them but this one had slipped through the net.

Have a lovely day peeps, especially PM Remember soon your dream of being married will have come true! Chair covers and food are insignificant compared to a radiant bride! They certainly don't appear in the photos!!

I remember getting very stressed before I got married as I had very little time to organise it. Everyone kept saying that I should have allowed an extra year! Took me ages to sort out my wedding dress and then the thought of sorting the bridesmaids dresses when one lived abroad was a nightmare. One day I realised that I didn't actually have to have any bridesmaids and I felt such a weight lift from my shoulders! It was a really good decision. Did the same for the cake - couldn't afford one so decided not to have one at all. Another decision I've never regretted. Looking back I can see that I still got too bogged down with some of the detail though. HTH

I think weddings must have been much simpler years ago. Was reading a novel set in the second world war. Spam sandwiches and a cardboard cake covering up a very small fatless sponge! And a 48 hour pass from the forces for your honeymoon!

Oh bu$$er! Missed the dustbin collection AND its Bank Holiday too! :mad:
