I've lurked long enough. Well done Tidy. :)

STD cards
Who the fuck does this?
(Apart from my DB and his now Chavzilla wife.
Not only did they do STD cards.
Their invites had the wishing well poem/demand for cash.
They got married in a hotel that closely resembled Crossroads Motel.
And don't get me started on Chavzilla's bridesmaid dress hysterics involving my DD...)
Hate weddings. Should have arranged MN sylvanian dirty protest flashmob for theirs too...
In fact MN should outlaw STD cards. Punishment for breaking this rule is MN dirty protest Sylvanian flashmob...

Im so glad my sister wasnt a Bridezilla, she was getting bored of her own wedding before it even happened.

bringthethunda · 04/08/2013 00:38

Just back from my first night out without baby (after 8 months) and not sure if it's the drink but the updates re sylvanian families have me pissing myself laughing. I see it as a Swedish kind of film noir, shot in black and white, and the smell of superglue and rage pumped into the audience for the whole experience

WhiteandGreen · 04/08/2013 01:23

And we're accusing these people on Confetti of being maniacs Confused

Notafoodbabyanymore · 04/08/2013 04:22

Tidy, your idea is hilarious. I've just been giggling away to myself imagining her going about her daily business surrounded by life-sized sylvanians, wondering wtf is going on.

Thumbwitch · 04/08/2013 04:46

Found you! Wondered what was happening...

SlightlyItchyBraStrap · 04/08/2013 06:29

So glad I finally figured out how to highlight the ops posts! Makes it a lot easier keeping up with LOTR trilogy sized threads like this.

FiftyShadesofGreyMatter · 04/08/2013 07:44

Delurking to wait with bated breath for a reply, come on sisterzilla!

Nothing to do with place marking, as if I would!

ArrowofApollo · 04/08/2013 07:49

I used STD cards but it was because most people were travelling at least 2 hours to get to the wedding venue (in the city near where DH and I lived) and we wanted to make sure that our closest friends and relatives could definitely make it - we actually changed the date by a week to accommodate my Uncle and Aunt because it was important for me to have him there. And I had to arrange accommodation for everyone as I managed to negotiate a big discount rate at a nearby premier inn.
it was important to me to take as ,much stress out of going for my guests as possible as if they were having a good time so were we.
I did ask for Argos vouchers though but there was no poem Grin and everyone got individual thank you letters no matter what they gave. I was actually astonished at how generous people were. only 2 people didn't give vouchers, they both brought a lovely gift which we grateful for. Tbh I don't get offended by wish lists or asks for cash and vouchers, frankly it makes it easier for me and I only spend what I can afford.
I think it is telling that 10 years on I still have friends and family tell me how ,much they enjoyed our wedding Smile

CamperWidow · 04/08/2013 08:55

Shamelessly marking place. Come on....reply damn you!!!

I used STD cards but it was 6 years ago and we got married on a Friday which was virtually unheard of then.

helenthemadex · 04/08/2013 09:55

I cant believe she is keeping us waiting, so inconsiderate

TidyDancer · 04/08/2013 10:52

Afraid to say still nothing wrt a reply. :(

The suspense is a killer!

Gluezilla's sister may be too embarrassed to ever reply.

FruOla · 04/08/2013 11:00

I fear you might be right Lisa. Or maybe she's trying to persuade Gluezilla to apologise to Tidy?

EagleRiderDirk · 04/08/2013 11:02

if I were gluesister I'd at least try to cover with a 'I must have gotten the wrong end of the stick, sorry to bother you tidy' email.

clam · 04/08/2013 11:15

I wouldn't be expecting a reply to be honest. She asked what was going on; you told her. End of story.

MintyChops · 04/08/2013 11:24

If Gluezilla's sister doesn't reply then it's clear that rudeness and twattery run in the family.....

Mimishimi · 04/08/2013 11:25

Sadly I agree with this. Sigh...they'll hire someone to decorate ... but they might try to hit up the other STD non-invitees for freebies nonetheless. Might be worth getting the word out..

RenterNomad · 04/08/2013 12:57

" If Gluezilla's sister doesn't reply then it's clear that rudeness and twattery run in the family....."

Not sure about this! The sister, if she agrees with Tidy, is in an awkward position, and it might be least-said-soonest-mended for her to just shut up or, at best, tell Gluezilla off privately but not humiliate her publicly on MN.

MintyChops · 04/08/2013 13:46

Well the sister has involved herself in what she knew was a situation which had upset Gluesilla. I think Tidy's email to her deserves some sort of response if only to say something like "Oh, sorry, sounds like something you and Glue need to sort out". To ignore it would be twatty and rude IMO.

Beastofburden · 04/08/2013 15:21

Hehe yes we can have a franchise mrsK. Gluezilla honeymoon is the place to start. Will join in the sylvanian stalking, not dirty protest tho, too much like home life.

I think glue siblings are trying to see if they can find someone else to decorate, before deciding how much they need to grovel to tidy.

Neighbourhoodwatchbitch · 04/08/2013 16:01

I'm so desperate for the sister to reply...!

This better than eastenders!!!!

Notafoodbabyanymore · 04/08/2013 16:04

I really hope this works...

Think this is the guy we need

Notafoodbabyanymore · 04/08/2013 16:05

Yay!!! Did my first linky thing on my phone!
