i'm betrothed

[Michael Palaeologus]

"Mrs Mockers" - it does have a certain ring to it.

I trust your feeling well rested after your bacchinalian weekend Mockney..and the chilli

[mockney piers]

Actually I feel like I've been run over by a bus, but cheers for the concern Mike. I've a feeling Mrs Mockers might not go for that; what do you reckon to O'Ca?adas?

[SeanMacGabhann]

When I read about the chilli a lightbulb went on over my head - "I bought lot's of chillis yesterday!" - I had clean forgotten

What a weekend - great to meet everyone again (and again)

[citizenED]

Dear Piers, Congrats from me too. though i don't know you, I think i was with you at least once over the weekend - not I think the forum drinkies (were you there?) or even the fair but from what i heard you were at Wembley on Sat. As a stevenage boy I was there too. 2-0 dowm, 3-2 win. Magic.

Wheneshs the shtag?

[Jah Lush]

I don't know you either but congratulations to you. I hope you'll both be very happy together forever.(tu)

[mockney piers]

Thanks Citizen. I couldn't make the drinks as I was busy destroying huguenot and all his old pals at his stag do.

But we got 8 of us down to wembley in the end (a couple of no-shows sadly) and it was a fantastic experience, brilliant turnout from both sets of fans. I'm actually a Letchworth boy but as we had no real team it was always Broadhall Way for us.

Great game too, though I suspect Huguenot's still sulking just a tiny bit.

(not as much a Neil Warnock though, ho ho "What goes around comes around and maybe Chelsea will win the FA Cup and AC Milan the Champions League." Silly man.)

[Bellenden Belle]

Congratulations to you both - though again, I don't know you - but hope you have a very happy life together.

[Polly D]

Hurrah!!!! Enhorabuena a los dos! A toast to the future Mr and Mrs Mockney. :)-D

Only this morning I dumped loads of bridal mags in the recycling bin, I could fish them out and send them down ...

[bawdy-nan]

Congratulations!

[mockney piers]

Oh no...months of bridal mags...what have I done.

"Oh these, no these are the wedding flowers they're double the cost"

"But they're the same flowers"

"No no, these are Wedding flowers"

Only joking, thanks again everyone.

[Huguenot]

Have you been at the sherbert lemons again F'n'B?

[Michael Palaeologus]

Oh, the cost of those huge Irish weddings. I have just been talking to a colleague about the hugeness of the whole thing.

The sandwiches and tea at 3 am are a particularly good touch to keep you going.

Of course the non-Irish contingent will need to be instructed to learn a song.

But you knew that already.

[Keef]

See Piers, this is why you want to be marrying a hippy lass who hates the idea of the traditional wedding, and just wants a big party where everyone gets drunk!;-)

I assume it shall be taking place on the emerald isle????

As for Warnock, what a tit!

[ratty]

Nice one mate - marriage is a superb institution!

So was Bedlam apparently but don't let that put you off!

Ratty - 1 year 8 months and 20 days in!

[TillieTrotter]

Talking of marriage, did I hear that Hugenot is getting married in Tuscany?

[mockney piers]

You certainly did. Not long now either and looking forward to it a great deal (not least to get away from this interminable rain)

[TillieTrotter]

Would it be too rude/nosy to ask where abouts?

[mockney piers]

Do you know, I haven't the foggiest, going to have to get a grid reference at some point, but somewhere between Pisa and Florence I think.

[TillieTrotter]

And its in June I believe!

[Huguenot]

Oh indeedy!

:))

Happiest Yoda in the world I am!

La Preghiera was apparently the 5th best place to get married in the world, according to last year's Independent. As DM would say, Tuscany is so last year

Magical day is 9th June. Honeymoon in SA. Got to buy a bloody impressive wildlife lens for the camera as special treat. Mockers, which one should I get?

Harrumph. No dancing emoticon. :))

[georgia]

Looks very nice! Congratulations to you and all the best on the big day :)

[TillieTrotter]

Shame I wont be there until mid July otherwise I could have stalked you and thrown a little rice and could have bought a beautiful Italian hat and had a beautiful Italian weep. Have fun, it looks amazing(tu)

[mockney piers]

Can't go wrong with this little baby

 

[TillieTrotter]

Blimey, that looks like a space shuttle.
