    Oi Geoff, don't spam our lovely thread!

    Put a pound and a half on tonight gang.... I knew it would be bad so I'm not too upset about it... actually quite relieved... It was half what I was expecting!

    Been finishing off invites... Etiquet says you are supposed to hand write the names but after trying it with the calligraphy pen it just didn't look right so have printed them from the computer and hand writing the envelopes...

    I also realised I'd way over bought on the cards so am going to make thank you cards to match the invites if I can stand it!

    How's everyone else doing? Anybody any closer to being ready? We're off to see the balloon people friday about decorating the venue...

    going gym and swimming again tonight so hopefully will lose 2 1/2 lbs this week?

    on the wedding front -

    waiting for the caterers to call me back today to confirm menu's.

    just booked my honeymoon flights to St Tropez £39.96 return and thats for both of us so how MSE am i? :money: (then have baggage/check in and card handling fees etc on top but still a bargain)

    Not feeling very weddingy at the moment... Thanks to the MIL which is annoying because we had a really nice day yesterday, went together and booked the flowers and chose a balloon package for the reception venue... Bought a present for the extra bridesmaid we gained a few weeks ago... Have ordered and waiting for the dress for the extra bridesmaid too... Have ordered my veil...

    Oh and we bought a kitten yesterday too!
