Hi benandsue, you've picked a mad night to join us - it's my hen night . I have stacks to do, and shouldn't really be here, but wanted to see if the girls were having fun without me...my DD1 was 20 months when my DTs were born - I will write a proper post on how we dealt with things next week once I'm an honest married woman. In the meantime, congratulations .
Momma, just wanted to thank you (and your gorgeous DP) for my stripper...my DP has gone off to the pub with a mate for his last drink as a single man and I'm stuck here on my own - but I'm no longer. Had my nails done this morning...they lasted about 10 minutes at home till one was chipped . Still am being pampered in the morning by a close friend who is a professional make-up artist.
I still haven't shaved or ironed my dress - must do the latter now while DP is out and then hide the dress in the back room so he doesn't see it. FG, love the poem...hope you feel better tomorrow, in time for the ceremony - midday at the register office .
Off now, thank you for a lovely evening, next time I post I will be Mrs...... .
Oh and Chops, I'm sorry I have no pearls of wisdom for you, but others have given what sounds like sound and lovely advice (particuarly like the letter idea from FG). Hope things seem better in the morning. Thinking of you.
