to be a little miffed that the bloody world is about to end just as I'm planning such a lovely wedding

[MUHAHAHADascheese]

I came on here to wax lyrical about how much I'm looking enjoynig planning our wedding and what do I find, the bloody apocolypse is on it's way...how pissed off am I?

And not that I'm paranoid, but that's how far my ex MIL will go to prevent me being happy

you think she has orchestrated the end of the world, and her own world, to keep you from happiness?

Yabu.

The world has it in for ME. ME ME ME, you hear!!

So you can go on planning your wedding, it is not your world ending.

Okey Doke...thanks for clearing that up!

Quite pleased as I've bought a ridiculously expensive dress very early to avoid the VAT increase and would have to start wearing it for work if the end were in fact nigh as I'll be buggered if I'm wasting it :)

you're welcome, glad to be of assistance.

You would not have to travel to work on the underground by any chance?

If so, I might have to re-persuade you that the end is indeed neigh!

arf! no, away in the provinces I'm afraid :)

as you were then.

Who said the world is ending?

if the apocalypse happens, you can still get married. We'll arrange a contingency plan for it.

Whatever happens, you can still wear the dress. and then we can use the material to mend sails.

oooo really?

But on the other hand DP is sort of the 'Handy' type you'd want him around making stuff out of stuff and checking it's measured right. He'd have far more important things to do...

Chipmonkey, I am also eyeing up the size of my credit card limit - I mean it could just be the one side benefit of the end of the world right?

yes, making stuff out of stuff will be very very useful. :)

"the end is indeed neigh!"

Is that the 4 horsemen I hear?

nickel - will offer up my very lovely DP as my passport to safety on the mothership then.

Yeah, he'll hate that..

Porcelain - arf!

Hate to say the world can't end as its not in my diary and if its not in there its NOT happening.

are you my big sister babyicebean? - she's the sort of person who could not only stop an apocalyptic event in it's tracks and but then send it scampering to the naughty step as well

THree kids and a hubby,who is on call for the RAF,who writes (occasionally) things down on scraps of paper and expects me to be a mindreader I NEEED that diary!

If the apocolyptic event comes round here it will be dealt with as will the zombies my brother was yammering on.

Now has anyone seen 10 yards of fire engine red lycra the husband has put away?

Never fear OP - the Mumsnet Escape Cruise/Warship will come complete with a marriage licence so your happy day can go ahead. With the added bonus of looting and pillaging and zombie killing. Hop on over to the Appocalypse thread and I am sure someone will be happy to act as your End of the World Wedding planner.

I just came from there KungFu...

The thing I need to know now is will my wedding guests feel I'm being elitist hold the wedding on the escaping mothership and not inviting thme?

you can invite them if they're of child-bearing stock (or have children that need raising still)

YOu can get married on our warship :)

ok fair enough,

now dress code?

Are going with the post apocalyptic vibe?

Sort of Boden meets Mad Max?

we'll wear what we can, after all, there's a war on, you know.

but you wear your lovely dress.

OK so if this apocolypse is going to happen can I have a time and a date so I can put in in the diary please.

Also can I come along as I can make wedding cakes and like catering for parties, I have a hubby who deals with laser routers/cutters/things that make things to keep RAF in the skies?

If we can schedule the time and date can it be after thursday as am booked in to do a charity do for the local childrens hospital please?
