And thank you all for being so lovely. My day has turned out very strange but quite happy. I am all alone with DS and have no-one to share my news with. Who can I shriek at first?

Ooo, yes, dogs allowed - GrockleDog will be there with a pink bow on.

MN haircut yes, but not me because my hair's curly and it would look rubbish.

Off to google dresses.

Guad - I was SuperBunny. We used to be veggers together & chat about the merits of Binham Blue cheese & lots of butter on toast.

Oh I was going to be all po faced about not marrying him to make him happy when it suddenly became apparent that it would make you very happy too, -Grockle :)

Good on you, missus - I wish you all the luck in the world.

Congratulations Grockle and FutureMrGrockle.
Thanks

What a lovely thread. :)

Let me know the date ASAP. I live in East London and the fake tan slots fill up quickly. I want to book early.

Can I bring the dog? He loves a good wedding?

Can you imagine the monumental AIBU wedding thread if every MNer demanded to be allowed to do stuff?

I think we would break the internet!

Anyway - Hurray Grockle is getting married!!!!

Guadalupe · 27/06/2012 17:17

And actually, this is fairly typical of DP - I always complain that he does everything by text. Drives me bonkers. He did call me but I was playing mario karts with DS and posting on here busy so he left a stuttery voicemail saying he loves me but was unable to speak and was looking forward to seeing me tomorrow. I could hear him smiling and he could barely string a sentence together. Silly old man!
