Ok, if you've got your invite and letter information, you'll know that we would like people to recommend music they would like to dance to. At the bottom of this post is 'comments' if you could put down your music selection. :-)

Hectic Times

This weekend Heidi and I have been busy trying to do as many of the wedding invites as we can. We have also started buying some of the wine for the wedding. I also aim to brew about 250 bottles, I have about 150 so far, I better get cracking!

Vegan caught in action!

Heidi and I spent Christmas Eve at my sister's we had a fantastic time. Here is Heidi caught in the act of going for some 'foie grais'. I'll have to send this one to the Vegan society! We had roast beef, and it was funny hearing the discussing about the proper way to cook beef, as the French say, "English people don't know how to cook beef" and vice versa. Lots of wine, champagne, delicious food, Jenga and Jules (Fred's brother [my sister's boyfriend]) favourite game 'The really nasty horse racing game".

We also had Fondu on Christmas day. All in all a fantastic Christmas eve & Christmas before travelling up to Buxton for Heidi's mum Boxing day family do (more delicious food).

*Note: Heidi did not eat the Foie Gras...(Heidi hit Bob's head)...ouch!

Christmas Deco

We decorated the flat before going down to my sister's on Tue 23rd Jan. We put greenery around the flat and hung the Christmas cards. We also manage to make the wreath, please see the slide show on the left 'Christmas Deco' for the beautiful wreath.

Deja poo

I recently came up with an expression "Deja poo" i.e I've heard this 'poo' (I'm putting it politely here) before, it came into my head while I was driving in the car. I thought it was pretty good. When I told Heidi, she just shook her head. hmmm....I'm wondering if she thinks she is marrying the right guy. Maybe I should try to be abit normal for the time being until we get married.

By the end of this weekend we hope to post out the wedding invites to friends and family.

Cold December day at the allotment

Heidi and I thought of planting some bulbs recently. The ground was too hard to wotk on and my fingers were absolutely freezing. In the end we chickened out with planting bulbs, instead we did some pruning of the roses and fruit trees.

Wedding Card


Heidi's friend Gabs has helped us alot in coming up with designs for the wedding card invite. We finally decided on a design which Heidi came up with intergrating some of the ideas and design Gabriella had. Heidi has been working hard trying to get it finished. Here is a quick look at the template. We're going to put a gold sun around the birds as an extra touch. I think it looks beautiful (you can click on the picture to view it more clearly).
