The mister and I have also worked out that I'm due a tidy sum in tax rebate - Yes, I'd better repeat it: *speaks slowly to ensure comprehension* ~ Money back from HMRC :-)
I should really offer apologies for depriving you of my unique style of blogging for so long since my last post... Things have been really quite hectic over the last month or so, and whilst I've had many intentions of picking up the keyboard during that time, I never really made it to writing anything.
As some of you will be aware, my dear sister got married just over a week ago, and I got the only bridesmaid job going. My sister looked as stunning as I knew she would, and my brother-in-law (I love saying that!) scrubbed up quite well too - he even trimmed his beard. Imagine a more human version of Chewbacca, and you've got him. Talking of Chewie - he does a scarily accurate impression *grins*
I know someone might be interested in the flowers and other arrangements...
and this was my bouquet - my sisters was the same but bigger...
My sister also made her wedding jewellery (which I benefited from too, as she made me a pendant, slightly smaller and slightly different to match hers):
All in all a good day was had by all, and the mister and I will be celebrating it all over again in a couple of weeks at their 'Just Hitched' party.
Talking of the mister; we're off on holiday in two days :-) Off to the most southerly of the Channel Islands, Jersey ~ land of the jumpers and potatoes. Whilst we're there we'll be meeting up with an old internet-based friend of mine (who I've never met face-to-face), who's a published author and singer/songwriter with two albums :-) He's also a bit of a poker player. See this website if you're wondering who the hell I'm talking about...
Anyway, will try not to leave such a huge yawning gap between posts next time...
'Tis time to make packing lists :-)
