I am sure l can't be the only one who is sick of gritting their teeth! MIL hasn't been convinced to put the heating on today so it's another cold day for us. I made the mistake of mentioning l was...
Not me. Obvs. Are you and your H taking bets on who will get engaged at Christmas? What are your general views on this? Personally I am not a fan. It's a time for everyone, not for you to steal the...

So last night, we attempted to DTD which most of you know has been an issue. OH has been fine the past few weeks, not grumpy, but we haven't really spent much time together due to his work, family,...
I am so very cross. I've always done most of my Christmas shopping online because I don't drive, local public transport is dreadful, and shopping with kids in tow is a nightmare. Over the years I've...
Reading the thread by pinky you all sound so reasonable ?
Sort of WP related but not really. I 'like' Great Fosters (our wedding venue) on Facebook. They just put pics up of a 21st birthday party there on Saturday. Minimum spend for a wedding in December, on...
What colour do you think looks better for a man pushing 30? H tried on loads of trainers yesterday and these were really the only ones he fits as he has wide feet. Ideally he wanted white. We saw the...
One of our amazing couples who's wedding we photographed over the summer emailed us last week to let us know that they're pregnant! We're so happy for them ? We've ended up being good friends with...

As the title says really...but please dont say Primark! I get so claustrophobic in there so have to run out before I even start looking! Really, I need more clothes - and yes that sounds desparate,...
I'm making the BBC food one but not sure how long they last? ie how far in advance of Christmas can I make them as a gift and then how long do they have before they have to eat them?
French FIL (looking at our wedding guest books (we had photo booth)) *starts whispering in French to MIL* Me : oh what's that? French FIL: Oh just saying you look like a different woman in these...
Ok bit of a boring post but wanted to get your opinion I have already got my OH about £140 worth of stuff for Xmas. And thought that was enough. Last year his XBox broke and he was majorly gutted. Now...
Took his clothes and left in his car and everything. Said ‘thanks for no happy memories’. I took his house key while he was packing, at least he can’t get back in.
