    Indeed.
    I hope a trip to Cuba is also coming out of it as well.


    Don't know about Cuba guys but I have an appointment for a full day at the spa on Friday - think the wedding fund can stretch to that too :rotfl:

  • I've had a day at home cleaning, tidying and prepping for the big weekend.

    My outfit is complete and fits perfectly (I've lost 9lbs :T). Everything has been pressed and altered where required. I shortened a necklace and customised my hat... well, I sewed the spare button from my jacket onto it :rotfl:

    My lovely new next-door neighbour picked up Mr F's hire suit on her way home from work today so that has saved us a couple of hours. She's also looking after the Fortunate Cat whilst we are away so I've got a little gift to leave in the kitchen for her to say thank you.

    Mr F is on his way home from the airport. I cooked Miso Salmon with Rice Noodles for supper so just need to warm up a plate for him when he arrives.

    I shall be spending tomorrow morning at the spa, courtesy of the wedding fund, and the afternoon packing.

    Happy hump day all
