    Morning all.

    I was up earlier but there was no way I was going to stay up how cold it was so off back to bed I went with a little drinky and wrapped myself up reading a book, time flew but I do wish it wasn't so cold.

    When we had all that lovely weather last week I had started to sort things out in the garden (be it at a slow pace) now it seems the decking will have to be on hold for a little while yet.

    If any of you guys and gals go out today wrap up well and if you have any put them thermals on! ;) Hel.xxx.

    Hey all,

    its cold, but i've just been down the pub with Darren and our friends for lunch and a pint in the garden embracing the sunshine best we can!

    Now discussing wedding favours with my friend, its somewhat the last on the list of things to do when they get married in October, so we're thiinking of interesting things to pop in it!

    She cant be bothered and just wants sugared almonds in an organza bag but i would opt for sugar mice and jelly dolphins in pretty ribboned bags with a bath bomb i think!

    Wishing a cushty morning to all!

    :D It's a beautiful place whiley, google it... ;)

    [​IMG] The last two wedding we went to had favours.. The first had some little boxes that were filled with jelly beans, fave sweets of them both.. Then as they both go fishing together, they tied 300 fishing flies between them & a little army of us, closed the boxes with the fish hook they had tied the flies on... Somewhere I did have one!.. The other one they gave some beautiful scented candles tied up in organza with ribbon.. Each candle had the message..
    I had to get it out to remember the quote & it still smells as gorgeous now.... [​IMG]

    That is absolutely beautiful! I'm going to remember that! It sounds crackers, but i do sometimes think about making a wedding planner s****book, i know my own time is a way off yet. But i'm a complete girl and fantasize a lot!

    A lot of our friends are getting married this year and next year, and had 2 weddings year before last.
    And i adore them. Only thing is i've only ever been to 2! And neither were even half fancy either!
    I've never been into weddings or love until recent years, but since my friends been planning hers, and quite lazily as well - i've just felt so jeleous! Shameful isn't it!

    I have family in Gloucester, Nick! :D

    Ah...I may have been born in Gloucestershire but the city of Gloucester has it's own identity and the folk there are unique in their own way!
    I worked there two weeks ago and they and I are Worlds apart. :D
