Re: Weddings /'Over the brush'
That made me chuckle.....but I am sure it wasn't exactly what you needed.......especially for the legal bits.
I think our nuptials took something like five minutes to perform.....there was no music, no pleasant surroundings.....the place was old and quite dark looking(although the fact that it was October and it was pouring with rain might have had something to do with that)....so it didn't seem the most auspicious start. But heck I wouldn't want to be going through all the organising of a wedding today. Not that I couldn't do it. I just don't want to.

Re: Weddings /'Over the brush'
As you said Margaret all you wanted was to marry your man. The excuse these days of not being able to afford a wedding obviously means they cannot afford the 'do' and all the trimmings. No reason why they cant do what you did and just have a registry office wedding. Seems to me now folk think the bigger the better but it does not make a better marriage just means a bigger waste of money when they split up. Not as much staying power these days.

Re: Weddings /'Over the brush'
I sincerely hope you reach your Golden Wedding Margaret. It is an achievement. I remember when my parents had theirs my dad said ' 50 years, bloody train robbers only geet 30yrs and they got some off for good behaviour.' They enjoyed their Diamond Wedding too . Golden Weddings were rare years ago but in recent years there have been many but with couples splitting up nowadays they will be come a rarity again before long.

Re: Weddings /'Over the brush'
Yes, you are right.....and many of those 'splitters' are silver splitters
