currently 148 .....

Here's a little wedding related 'currently' post while you sit in front of your computer with a warm hot cross bun & a cuppa in hand.
Obsessing over:
The wedding!!! I know people talk about baby brain but if I'm this bad when planning a wedding then goodness knows how I'll be with sprog in tow! Most of the time I love having these little ideas ticking away in the back of my mind but it would be nice once in a while if at work I didn't suddenly think about the perfect table cloth.

Working on:
Getting all the bridesmaid outfits sorted. In the last week of so we've come on huge leaps & bounds which is great, at least they have dresses & shoes in the pipeline cos at the start of March they'd have been walking up the aisle nude which wouldn't have gone down too well!

Thinking about:
The dreaded budget which we may have gone over! Yoink! I'm off to nab a lottery ticket for tomorrow in hope this may all change!
the tape measure mum made for us counting down the days :)

Anticipating:
The big day in 148 days time! Recently I've been mega excited & it's been lovely getting updates on the rsvps landing through ma&pa's letterbox. I love how much fun our invites have brought to people too. Adam did good!

Listening to:
Seeing as Adam & I have lots of ideas when it comes to music most of our plans (first dance, etc) have come really easily, it's just the music for leaving the church to we're a bit stuck with. Hopefully we'll find something soon that both we & the priest like!
my not-so-little wedding planning book bursting at the seams!

Eating:
Too much! The wedding diet starts again NOW! Well maybe after Easter?!

Wishing:
I had a time machine. Sometimes I wish time would hurry up so I can marry my man & start our happy lives together as husband & wife (eeek!) & other times I'd love to go back to give us more time to sort things & save them pennies.
All that's left to say is have a great Easter & see you on the other side of a very welcome long weekend!
Thanks to Katie & Danni for the ideas for this post.

T-minus 6months / 184days!

Image
Eeep! 6months today I'll be just about to walk down the aisle to see the man I'm going to marry! AAAAARRRRGGGHHH!I'm so ridiculously excited I'm not sure I can bottle it up! Valentines day marked 200 days till our wedding & mum made us a countdown using tape measures measuring 100cm each. The plan was to cut off a cm each day as the countdown but she'd included little charms all down them of bags, shoes, guitars, etc & we didn't want to ruin it so we're colouring it in with a Sharpie instead! She's the best! :) thanks mum! Last night after work Adam & I met up at Waterloo to head home & it was all going as planned till we stopped at one station for about 20mins cos of a backlog due to a part suspension. There was nothing we could do to get on another line so we sat & waited, the train eventually left but then sat at the next station (Swiss Cottage) for another 20min & they didn't know when they'd set off again. We knew th...

Happy 30th Adam!

Image
Wow what an eventful weekend! Friday was Adam's 30th so we both took the day off work to celebrate together. After sleeping in till 10am Adam finally woke me up asking when I was going to emerge & celebrate his birthday with him - Yoink! So much for the breakfast in bed I had planned. We started the day off as all birthdays should be celebrated - with a trip to Asda! After getting the boring chores out the way we headed to Winter Wonderland (via the Barber) for our annual wander around with a mulled wine in one hand & a Bratwurst in the other all polished off with a pretzel. We stopped off at the Carousel bar to watch the world go by (literally! The whole bar rotates really slowly) & have another mulled wine while putting the world to rights before heading off for dinner in Hammersmith. The first of many surprises for Adam were tickets to Steve Merchant's 'Hello Ladies' tour at the Apollo which was really good fun. We got there quite early so thought we...

#TowerPoppies

Image
Last September I was lucky enough to get the chance to take part in the "Blood Swept Lands & Seas of Red" at the Tower of London.... Those of you who are regular readers will know I love helping out the Royal British Legion & this was a chance to be part of something awesome! "Blood Swept Lands & Seas of Red" was to mark the centenary of the outbreak of WW1, in total there were 888,246 ceramic poppies (1 to represent every British / Colonial serviceman killed) & the last one was planted on Remembrance Day. If you want to find out more & see a video about the poppies being made click HERE . Early one Saturday morning I set off to the Tower of London & joined another 120 people for a 3hour shift. The aim was to plant 5000 poppies to keep on track for the 11th November but someone ended up opening an extra palette & we planted 6000 instead! Our team was lead by a Beefeater's daughter who actually lived in the Tower - such an in...
