    Not an effect a neurologist can boast of often, I suspect!
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.

    Especially not that one. Personality of a newt. I really, really dislike that one. At least they are trying something though :T. I think I 'm going to have to take a nap now. :wave:

    I understand the concept of not inviting children...but not inviting long term partners of guests?
    Weddings are expensive. Maybe the only way to invite family is to invite blood family only.

    It can quickly add another £2000-3000 or more to a lot of bills. Plus, with capacity limits, it can alter where you can get married -v- where you want to be.

    I simply wouldn't invite 'work mates' I didn't know very well rather than invite them but not spouses.

    I haven't forgotten you PN (as if anyone could)

    How about this phone http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/nokia-lumia-520-7-50p-m-talkmobile-poss-145-for-two-years-inc-35-cashback-cpw-1528529

    I know it is a contract but it means you get minutes/texts/data for 2 years for little more than the price of the phone on its own. Being a Nokia it should be pretty robust and being windows it should talk to the PC pretty easily. 5MP camera, I haven't read any reviews to how good photos it actually takes.
    I think....

    Good to hear from you Inspector, glad you're well. Can't believe it's over two years since you've posted.

    Speaking of weddings I've just been asked to be my housemate's best man! Which is a great honour, but I'm absolutely bricking it. I'm the most absent minded person you're likely to meet and I'm feeling the weight of responsibility already.

    You, me and LIR, we should set up our own grumpfest covern (-:
    Hmm.....there is a theme here. Can it really be we are electronically synchronising :eek:

    I feel fine in my jersey dresses while feeling 'minstrel'.

    Can I join too? I'll sit in the corner and keep my grumpiness to myself so long as I can bring the junk food I just picked up from the supermarket :o
