    He's not actually he's just a plain old moggy! Other people have said that he looks Bengal though, must be his markings. My friend has two Bengals and they are much more slender and elegant than our scruff bag!

    I had a definite slip up at the hen weekend diet wise, but finding it easier in the hot weather :)
    It definitely is nice when people compliment you on weight loss definitely a push in the right direction

    Have a good weekend mrs Mann, I doubt I'll be on much with my plans :)

    Well ladies been to the venue today and still love it !!! H2B asked if we could change some of the light bulbs in there uplights on the wall (to purple ) they agreed which was great news as its a cheap way of changing the look of the room however H2B ends up breaking one of the lights !!! venue was ok about it though phweee.

    I got an email from the lady with the wishing well saying she has broken it and now cant sell it (what a load of c***p she sold it as it went over the £30 before she took it of the site) never mind :-(

    Smarties love the mog !!x

    Morning Ladies - Is that pic the up or down Jill?
    I like it - look's very pretty, your make up is amazing, makes your eyes look good

    I had a productive day yesterday, bought the last bits for the honeymoon - got some bargains in the sale so happy with that. Got the pandora charm for my MOH
    Still cant find a gift for my niece though and its driving me crazy :s

    Off to the venue today for our final meeting, lots of questions and things to finalise, plus going to pay it all off :)

    Thank you Nic :) the side on pic is partially down, the other two are up but when I started dismantling it (before I saw h2b) I thought it just seemed more me with some down. Here's the pic at the hairdressers - shows side and some of the back... I'm undecided x

Savings plan matures this week so I'm going to live like a queen - or a woman with an upcoming wedding - and shop shop shop! Enjoy your day today! Finalising things... how exciting! Our menu tasting session should be getting arranged shortly, cant wait for that bit x

    Afternoon! I am at total panic stations. I don't know why but yesterday I just started freaking out and got myself all worked up :-( I've redone my lists and there's not much to do really but this morning I sorted ESTAs for honeymoon, made appt with florist, confirmed and paid final balance for hotel, bought bm hair comb. And this afternoon I'm paying off the chair covers.
    That's 5 things ticked off then :-) Going shopping on wed so plan to buy a couple of things on my list leaving just the best man gift and the lipstick (going to buy whatever my make up lady uses) then.

    Jill looks fab! Love the make up and I love the hair both ways. I know what you mean about being more you, but it looks equally nice up.

    Argh sorry about the wishing well Karen. I didn't even get chance to ask h2b as he came home from a night out at 3am and didn't get up til gone midday on Sat!

    I feel better now having paid one of the bills. Deffo getting there. Want everything sorted at least 2 weeks before wedding :-)

    My to buy list will be sorted by Sat so that's good. My to do list is a mixture of stuff that has to wait (sweet trees/cake buttons/postbox) and appointments (registrar/photographer/florist/venue). No-one wanted to see us until Aug so can start sorting all that now!

    Your dress will be gorgeous! Try to imagine the whole look for the day with hair make up, veil etc. You'll look perfect :-)

    my ring has been sent off last thursday and should be back on monday which is a long time but i went in in the evening on thursday and all the jewellery gets picked up thursday at 4 so i missed it so it went monday instead. £30 thru H Sams which is expensive for redipping but it last for ages

    Oh Nic! I was just starting to feel calm! Haha, wish I had my rescue remedy on me today!

    Good news about the hotel!

    I love lists. I have my to do and to buy and to pay for lists, then I have a week by week list, and this week even a day by day list! I have done two of today's jobs already! We're also finally trying to get our joint account going properly. We've had it three years but never arranged for all the bills to come out of it til this week! Just sorted the last one phew. Wanted it sorted before we got married and we've cut it fine but it's done!

    Nic, your olive trees, are you just keeping them in the garden? I want to buy our two soon - didn't sooner as my mum and have have visited a lot recently and didn't want them to see them.

    Yay for rings! I will need to get mine cleaned the week before as it's a bit grubby, as much as I try to keep it clean it always seems covered in hand cream or moisturiser. I hate taking it off though as I'm scared i'll lose it.

    I have hessian! I haven't looked in b&q actually just in a garden centre near us. Might check theirs out.
    I was keen on lavender but then I saw the bush/tree in the garden centre and it's a bit wild. Not as pretty a gift. I might go and get those this weekend then.

    I wonder how many brides buy 2 tiaras, I know i have. Fingers crossed that your side tiara arrives soon.

    Smarties don't worry about it she took it of e bay friday at about 8.30pm ( i will just have to find another)

    Ladies i went wedding ring shopping at the weekend i thought it would be easy 1 plain gold band how hard could that be ? well i cant have a plain ring as it will not sit with my engagement ring need to find one with a twist in it budget was £200 now been up to £450 it has to be yellow 18 carat gold I have only found one ring that sits well and that was £690 maybe on this occasion i shouldn't of listened to H2B when he told me it wouldn't take long to find one. and I should of started looking 3 of 4 months ago now its all a rush

    Ah you'll be ok if you can get it sorted in next few days I'd think. Local jewellers are probably quicker but may be more exp?

    H2b just sent me flowers at work! Aww, he's never done that, in fact it's my 3rd bunch of flowers ever! Card says 'One month to go! Can't wait!' They were due to arrive tomorrow (i.e. 1st) but I told him last night that I 'd booked tomorrow off and he had to ring to rearrange delivery!

    Hi girls... down to a month for me... yay lol

    Smarties that's lovely! I doubt h2b will ever send me flowers at work, he does buy me flowers though so I cant complain.

    Mrs Mann I actually phoned h sams the other day about it, need to hand it in soon, might drop in tomorrow after work

    I've been at the gym tonight, was started to get the hang of the classes so thought I may as well do two if I'm going to be there anyway so I've been doing a pump and combat doubler, or pump and step but tonight it was step then legs, bums n tums - I'm aching already! Was only 90 mins all in too... keep saying it though, no pain no gain! x

    Sit ups?! Oooh not done one of them for years. Perhaps I should start!

    I think I am turning down a party tonight to go to my zumba class! It's a 'end of financial year' work do and it was good fun last year but I want to do exercise and I don't wanna eat or drink.
