Busy weekend. Went to an evening wedding reception Sun eve - the wedding was clearly an amazing affair, the eve reception quite splendid. All held in a charming castle where attention to detail was perfect. Huge fun.
But the cost - they got the venue and catering half price as was a Sunday - only £30,000 :eek: Plus cars, dresses, cakes, etc etc. I saw some of the photos and it was the most stunning location and day but wow what a price!
Did smile at a conversation held over the weekend. Someone was asking me about Mr Watty's life insurance and was horrified when I said he didn't have any and, for that, matter neither did I. He began to expand on the vital need for same when I said I had written a guide to running my business that would mean Mr Watty had a plan if anything happened to me and that he was happy with this. " But what you do if anything happened to him??? How would you pay the mortgage?" the man asked.
I will not forget his face when I replied "We don't have one"
:rotfl:
Priceless! He was amazed that Mr Watty and I do not have a mortgage and thus ended his pitch for life insurance.
:eek::eek::eek::eek: is all I have to say about the cost of the wedding!!!!

:rotfl: at Ed and KC sword fightingMade it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!0 -
On an unrelated topic, I met a Shetland pony the other day who decided to introduce himself (suspect people feed him as his field is directly next to a popular park). I was quite enchanted, wonder if DD would like one?0

Shetland ponies are very cute but not useful for much...0

What a fabulous conversation I bet you were grinning from ear to ear at his baffled look! Gosh what a pricy wedding. Ours was around the £10k mark and I thought that was hefty! xMFW

I'm sure she would and Al/Smallholding Sister and I are more than willing to encourage the purchase of said pony. Then you can spend a fortune
I used to ride a Shetland and looked after one for a neighbour. They can be cute but equally are a force to be reckoned with. As a child I adored Amrise who I rode whenever my mum would take me there - but - he frequently left me in a ditch and went home alone :rotfl:Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
