Glad to hear you lot had a good time at the weekend- I would have loved to have gone, but prior engagements- I COULD have missed the wedding I was going to but a) it was two of my best friends, and b) I wanted to bask in 'so you made the cake?' glory (not that I got to, my replacement in my last job was there and had already told everyone about it which really irritated me, but hey, I got to see my friends get all married).

And thanks for the award! I'm so proud.

First of all, the biggest complaint was the weather, it rained!

Is it too late to get my name down for a CD of the BFG? I missed the chance while I there ... too busy dancing :blush:

Pretty please with a cherry on top can I put my name down. I'll pay today, even right now by Paypal if I need to. Beg, beg, plead, plead!

I think you look fantastic in both of them :flower: . I didn't like that one because I'm grinning like a loon.

I preferred this one (which I still look a bit insane in):

Memo to self. Don't grin like crazy in photos.

When I get to writing up the BFG I'm going to put that in :whistle: .

Personally, I think that for the girls, it should be a 'dress as Chicklets avatar' party!!

That had been my plan for the one just gone but I have lost so much weight that my lovely red basque that was hideously expensive just slides down now :blush: :tears: It's indecent :eek:

BTW Chicklet, can you direct us to the Grease poll thread?

I'm all for taking turns getting into a bask with you and Aleks :drool:
I used to be an angel, you know with halo and those wings;
Now that i'm a devil, my mind's on other things...
My feathers turned to ash, and my harp has broke in two;
I took uppon myself, to have a dance with you...
