Good Morning and Welcome to TFoF members and guests.

Second That

Still quite mild here, no heating again last night. Reckon it is cold up in the Dales though, mother in law said it was -5 last night, brrrrrrrrrr.

Morning everyone. Lovely day here on the reef. Taking Micky to the vet, looks like he may have been in a punch up with a dog

Morning members, Frosty start here this morning, Cat looked a bit stiff when he walked in,
Better get going things to do, Targets to meet, Deadlines to beat,

Good morning Cru hope Micky is ok and all goes well at the vets.
Heavy mist so can only just see across the road. My heating has been on for ages up here in the frozen north.

Thanks Mermaid, just got back from the vets and he has a virus, it's called Calicivirus and is highly contagious so now I have to stop them eating one anothers food (which is'nt going to be at all easy) He had a jab and has to go back tomorrow

oh the poor wee thing. That will be hard trying to keep them separate

Cam, I need some ideas on a Celtic Wedding, hope you have some.

well not sure what sort of info you are looking for but here's a wee list

stationery
made my own invitations with claddagh symbol on them can get images on line and change colours using paint or some fancier image editing software
i spent ages getting the size and colour just right
lr showed me a you-tube video once of how to draw celtic knots, really easy once you know how

venue
on a sort of related theme my wedding was at a castle, you can search for possible locations online will tell you if it already has a licence for weddings too

flowers
thistles are great, can get fake ones so they don't jag you and will last too,
heather, shamrocks etc

clothing
tartan even the bride and her party can get involved
don't need to go overboard, even just a sash or shawl or just a small part of the dress



favours
anything with celtic designs - bottle stoppers, bookmarks, jewellery boxes, hip flasks
all depends on how much you want to spend

hope this helps

You take after your father - (Smart), Looks from your mother,

Don't get too excited UD, she did not say that's her picture

Cru, I know, I was just covering my arse, In case M thought i was refering to her being not so smart, Dangerous business female feelings,

Not too sure MM but I think TD has been asked to be a best man so it could be he wanted to know what happens at a celtic wedding. We shall have to wait and see what is response is.

Hi MM. thanks.....Mum is right I am Best frog. Jan will make the Invites as she does Pergamano. She is also making the cake as she also makes Wedding cakes and hand made sugar paste flowers. We have a piper, used him at Mum's funeral and my Bro will sort Morris dancers.
As he is Irish going to source Ulster Tartan.
Found a great Celtic site.

How come he's getting buried in Scarborough and not Leeds?

He wants to see the sea !

He's being buried at 45 degrees to get a better view !

He was a little eccentric old Jimmy, wasn't he?

I'm racking my brains trying to think of a similar situation.

A writer, buried standing up facing the sea. :what:

Ben Jonson is buried in Poet's Corner standing up...
Ben Jonson

Evening, you have until 6.30 Reg to see him in his gold coffin.......

The dutchess was buried in scarborough, Thats were he has a flat over looking the sea, Did you know he got the QE2 to stop off shore once, Aked why he said "Because i can" He was all over the place, Talking to somebody today, Said he was in Otley a few weeks ago, A little shop used to get his cigars, They had a room at the back for test driving the cigars, He burst in shouting "Customs and Exise" Yes he was a nutter, I'l have a room full of them, Rather than some twat like Pickle p from elswhere, He is a strange fecker
