As the last thread was getting long and ot much arranged?

Any ideas or dates?

What about everyone puts down dates they can't do between now and end of June to get us started?

I can't do weekend of May 8/9th.

I would probably have DH in tow, as he hates being left out on the weekends! Would that bother you? Can it be a mix - some with, some without?

DH is dead easy to talk too He's really chatty and loves a gossip regardless of who with. And he loves playing ball with the kiddies, etc.

Just catching up on this. I can't do the weekend of the 8/9th either, or 22nd May apart from that anything goes.

It isn't likely that my DH will come along, he's not very sociable

katzguk · 03/05/2004 18:47

I am away staying with friends this weekend, sorry.

I think there are few people away for next 2 or 3 weeknds. How about thinking of a June date that more of us can make?

gingerbear · 10/05/2004 13:45

That's fine Hula, I thought it had gone very quiet after all the initial interest.

June it is then.

dottee · 15/05/2004 01:03

Count me and dp in for June please. We've nowt planned at all during next month (boring gits or what?)

june should be okay, half term might be tricky probably away but any other weekend.

i may have to cancel at the last minute my mil has cancer and we might have to dash away but count us in please.

how was your wedding wedgiesmum? ours was a little unusual

WedgiesMum · 16/05/2004 00:38

Oooh now I'm intrigued - how was it unusual???? Tell me, tell me.....and did you enjoy yourselves??

Ours was standard white wedding, penguin suits, big white frock. Saw DH's friends from University, and their various wives and children which was nice as we hadn't all been together for ages. DH completely disgraced himself by getting REALLY drunk by 8.30pm and we had to come away early Still Me and the kids looked fantastic!

ps Can do most of june except weekend of the 12th

katzguk · 16/05/2004 16:40

wedgies
really lovely, beautiful wedding but unusual because...

  1. very small wedding 30 guests (but DH is the cousin of the groom so was expecting lots of guests)
  2. DD only child but FIL has two children!!
  3. grooms bro didn't come
  4. no best man or bridesmaids
  5. no poeple other than us the bride and grooms age
  6. no evening do

however the food was so scummy!! smoked salmon (but a fillet not little thin slices), roast veggeis for main course (beef tjhingy for meat eaters) and the yummiest chocoalte moose fro dessert!!

dottee · 29/05/2004 02:26
