Thought this might make a companion thread to Anybody else up yet.

So I'm away to brush my teeth, collect my book + reading glasses, and hope for a restful night.

So good night all. smile

Sleep well jeni you must have hurt your ankle when you fell off the rolls broomstick! wink

jeni Fri 25-May-12 21:41:11

Well! I've found the heat quite tiring!
This is unusual. My ankle is hurting, I must have done too much on it today! But I can't think what? confused

So I'm for some painkillers and bed!

Sorry butter, hijacking your thread!

Have a lovely time! I think a tent is a great idea! Is it a 2 or four man tent or even bigger? grin

We had my reception in a tent on the lawn, it was great.140 guests and caterers. A day I shall never forget.
I was thinking of it it yesterday which was the ninth anniversary of dh death!
Don't know why it's got to me this year? Doesn't normally.
I've either been overworking or getting old and maudlinconfused

Just read your post about the tent(s) on the lawn, butty. Sitting here trying to imagine large tents on our grass. We'd have to have haggis tents to accommodate the slopes – you know, shorter legs on the up side of the hill wink

Make sure you save some energy for enjoying the wedding!

Such a pleasure to have good posts from good mates (all of you)! flowers

soop Thu 24-May-12 16:32:07

Butter...you've done your very best. We're all very proud of you. smile

Butternut Thu 24-May-12 16:26:18

Thanks all for your encouragement. It will be as it is, I am sure. smile
Just a bit more shut eye needed....

Take it easy Butty don't go wearing yourself out before the big day! flowers

So glad it's all going to plan, Butter! Fingers crossed for the day itself - I'm sure everything will go swimmingly after all your hard work. smile

..posted early because that's exactly what I want to do! Feeling pretty tired. Tents are up on the top lawn and looking very good as a back drop to my stone wall border that divides the two levels. The plants are doing their thing so I am pleased.

Not many more moons to go before the big day. smile

My bank sent me a text asking me to contact them. I'm pretty sure that my card details were stolen in San Francisco on my way to NZ, when I went to book tours to redwoods and wineries. They didn't use chip and pin, but took the card to put it through the old-fashioned carbon copy system.
