Oh Dorothy - how exciting! How wonderful and thrilling! There's nothing like a wedding to bring out the most extreme emotions in everyone!! - Mainly good ones of course.

You sound like you're on cloud nine, so do be careful to make time for yourself to rest - hopefully all that long list of stuff was spread over a while and not all on the same day!!! haha. Anyway, I'm delighted for you all and hope that you enjoy the run up to the BIG day!

Best wishes - Sylvia xx

cheers, i have a few new outfits already for summer so 2 of them are in the running,my son and best man are in kilts just for me as we are all scottish i requested the kilts and he has the butt to wear it,i am really looking forward to it and yes thanks sylvia i have rested (short ones) in between running around,i did spend all morning today getting my dog booked into kennels,i think the whole of east anglia has decided to go on holiday in sept, any way job done,blimey i am glad i am not going up the aisle the cost is unreall, the registrar is £460 due to them getting married in the hotel,easy money or what,i am in cloud 22 today i was taken with them both to see them chosing their rings AND i was asked for my opinion thats when i kept my mouth firmly shut but they have got lovely rings,i do like them, feel very previlaged,dorothy

hi jenni,kennel costs vary i have a staffy and can be from £13 a day to £20 but the the one i have got for my boy is £13.70 so not too bad and my sons dog went there last year so i have seen how it works but i have checked loads out about 2 years ago,i had to kennel mine for the first time as i was going away with my daughter and my son has his own dog,mine is a bit grumpy so i didnt want to chance him with the younger dog, so i did the kennel trail,i was shocked at some of them to be fair they were not upto my standards but the past one i used(£15 a day) was really good its like a small holding so the owner lives on site so to speak but she gets full very quickly,if any one is thinking of kennels for first time do go and view all the ones you think of, dont go by the picture on web as i found thats not what you always get,speak to the staff ,have a good look round,i went at different times of the day as well when i decided the one i wanted the staff were ok with that,also the kennel cough jag i would recomend, for me £22 gets done a month before so it gets in the system but worth every penny as it is a sore illness on the dog,ask friends if they use kennels, that was how i got to know of the one i used before and this time through my son using the one ive booked this time,hope i didnt waffle on too much,dorothy

hi guys,yep wont be long till the happy day, glad to say all is on schedule, the hotel has agreed to let him have 2 goldfish in a bowl as a centre peice on each table it will look lovely i'm sure but i am not happy with it, he has promised to give them to good homes after the event ie the hotel staff that have chidren or ponds in their gardens,i will not be taking any part in that.according to my son i have upset the bride to be how i have no idea so i will have to grovel to her briefly,ah well it starts already the mother in law thing, i dont see her often due to her working hours but i do get on with her maybe nerves and not listening to me properly,oh i hate walking on egg shells,dorothy

have ended up at gp for breathing trouble(felt it ages ago) so had the chest xray,breathing test thingy and next bloods,all back clear so far, now they think it could be the methatrexate GREAT.so no running around for a couple weeks or so and my sister is due down in 3 weeks,ah well there we go

Just caught up with this Dorothy, so pleased for you and excited as well. I helped or should I say I planned my daughter wedding, she's very laid back and left everything to me. She got married in a hotel and it was a lovely do, even if I say so myself.

I wouldn't worry about upsetting the bride to be, she's probably stressed about things, sure you will be back to normal soon. She's probably abit touchy about things at the moment wanting everything to be perfect.

just like to say have now made friends again with bride to be and things are on the up, i have got the honour of her wedding dress etc being kept here till needed, just hope her mother is ok with that as we get on very well but they have cats and dogs so it might get clawed and worse,i now have a very firm grip on my mouth ,well till next time, found out i have a dodgy muscle which is affecting my left lung ah well there goes running the marathon yet again,dorothy

oh jane,hows the head,glad im not alone on the like dont like thing,suppose what will be will be there,i wouldnt like to be in a choose triangle i am happy to step down, my mum never got on with my sister in law but it was a battle of wills with them both very bossy and the aruments never stopped,mostly about the kids believe it or not,silly,i have taken to a purple theme for an outfit as i like the colour and have 3 new dresses never been on why i have no idea,must have known to keep them hidden(yeh right)it was a oooh they look lovely and priced right,get them incase!!!! sadly nowhere to wear them as yet but heh now i have,i will pick one and save it then i will wear the others in the so called summer this year, i go with a few friends every so often for sunday lunch so a dress instead of jeans might be on the agenda,oh it would be nice to get the legs out again,dorothy
