WEDDING AND HAWAIIAN PARTY

 

Sam &Edita’s wedding
Now this was when I was in the U.K. And I have to mention it because all the family were together (Christenings, Weddings and, Funerals) That’s how it always is - such a shame!!!!
There was also an unexpected guest at the church, I was standing on the wet soggy grass in the churchyard waiting as usual for the photos to be taken and this really long slimy worm slither over my 3inch stiletto shoes, scream I did not but sick I felt as it slithered over to a gravestone and buried itself ugh! My brother Martin just looked on and I won’t tell you his comment as people do get buried.


The venue was great Thorn bury Castle so we were treading where good old Henry VIII was bonking one of his wives.

The old English flower garden was really romantic as you can see by my brother Ray. With his wife in the garden.


The bride as usual looked stunning and the groom Sam nervous but as Edita’s parents could not speak English; he did so well on his speech. I was really proud, as he is one of my favourite cousins.

They said all their vows in our childhood church so we had seen many of our relations walk through the turnpike, but I remember the days when the groom threw money and the kids threw rice. I notice now Clintons and other shops must make a mint in confetti. Now and I do miss all the old traditions.

Talking of those good old days Sam had a really old vintage car to carry them off and I did not like to tell him my dad had one like that. I remember///////

It was quite an occasion for my sister as it was her wedding anniversary this day and she had been married at this same church many years before and I had been a bridesmaid all in lilac and only 11 years old. It was also sad as our parents and that older generation had all passed on and just where had all those years gone. They do just seem like yesterday.


The whole day was very classy and beautiful and as you can see by the photos the venue was outstanding.


Nita my sister-in law felt young too as she slid down the banister well !!!!


All had a good day and we would like to WISH SAM &EDITA A WONDERFUL NEW LIFE TOGETHER..


SUE & TREVOR'S HAWAIIAN PARTY

They did it again a party of all parties.
Lilies floating on the pool, romantic you would think but alas the filters kept sucking them in the corners but whoever got thrown in the pool had to place them in the middle again so as you can imagine quite a few bodies got ducked.

I declined so crept into the Jacuzzi so on seeing me wet, people thought I had already been thrown in and missed me out. See blondes aren’t that dumb!!
Food now you know that’s a good subject for me to start on and Trevor again surpassed himself with delicacies of coconuts, fruits and an array of Hawaiian chicken dishes. I as usual was first to partake so I am the expert on all food that’s why I need a little lypo.

All us guests did well with our grass skirts and flowers adorning our bodies and hair, even Andy looked stunning in his loud shirt and his knobbly knees protruding out from his blue skirt.

John one of the guests turned up as a Maori warrior including the tattoos which he informed me took 3 hours, good job they were only Henna. Carla took this to heart and demanded a sacrifice!

Everybody had really gone to town with their costumes and a good and drunken time was had by all...

The cocktails were flowing generously and the spa 36 degrees and that’s where Andy and I sneaked off and languished luxuriously in the foaming waters.


We could hear people being popped in the pool and screams of shock as they hit the cold water at 3.00 am but we just smirked in our lovely warm, romantic setting.

Slightly inebriated as some were they started to drift off home at about 4.00am but us veterans now needed our fix of KARAOKE.

Why do I sound so good when I have been drinking Champagne cocktails and of course our professional Trevor always keeps us entertained and I must admit he’s not a real Karaoke singer not like us. Too Professional??


Now 5.00am and coloured grass trailing everywhere and empty glasses scattered all over the place, voices now croaking and the pool looks like Hurricane Doghouse had hit Villaverde.

Andy asleep in the pink armchair even while we are screeching out “SWEET DREAMS ARE MADE OF THIS” but this is normal for him, he is always asleep for an hour or two then wakes up and wants to start again but I am afraid by 6.00am a Taxi was called and home we all went.


Great great party but what happened to Sunday?Did Toby get his walk?
Did we feed the cats?
We certainly did not eat ourselves; we did not even get out of our JIM JAMS.
All to soon Monday arrived and back to work!!!!!!
I need a quiet month or two but I doubt it.
