Wedding prep doesn't go well

A weekend in Derbyshire to check out the hotel we're staying in on our wedding weekend. This is the 'best' picture I could muster up thanks to the monsoon that accompanied our trip.

Oh, and we got food poisoning. It was a fun trip.

HOPEFULLY THE DAY ITSELF WILL BE BRILLIANT SO YOU CAN LOOK BACK ON THIS & LAUGH (MAYBE???)

Yes it was a shocker & I thought about you at the time. But up there on them moors can be pretty hairy at times............your expression says it all !

Hope the 'actual' day is calmer & drier and that you found the hotel to your liking.

It snowed heavily on my day so an extra-white wedding.

Your fiancée looks lovely. xx

We got the food poisoning at the hotel, so we've changed our plans. We've now let a cottage two minutes from the Register Office instead that we can stay in with the kids. We can now just make it up as we go along really during that weekend. :)

And yep, the Baroness-to be is a darling. Dreadful weekend but we rarely stopped laughing!

That's the key to survival isn't it................whatever cr+p we're dealt, the humour is a life-saver. Mind you, if it's dealt in the form of edible bacteria it's not a laughing matter at the time..........it's horrible.

Hope you're both fully recovered and the more flexible arrangement for the big day sound like a wise move.

I'm repeating myself but I'm so happy for you Andy. All this marriage business makes me smile and spreads some much-needed optimism around. :-) xx

Well, I'm certain our resident photographer on this site will be along after the wedding to furnish the place with her photographs of the day, to hopefully make you grin :)

We always prefer hiring a cottage to staying in a hotel, excellent when you just got to have that slice of toast at 11:30pm ;-)

Have a really special time!

You could always look on the bright side, at least the food poisoning diets available - ensures the wedding suits fit !

Seriously, not nice though it can you imagine if it had happened on the day

I think it's wonderfully positive occasion. It's great for us to have your wedding to look forward to :-) we are your other family after all!

Rain on the wedding day is supposed to be lucky in some places.

Oh, bless you, that's a lovely thing to say! I'll read that to the Baroness later and we can well up together as we wander the gardens in the stately noble home :)

Seriously, thank you, that means a lot x

When's your big day???

In advance I send to you and the baroness virtual best wishes, happiness and good luck thoughts for the day and your future life together
