'PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT YOUR WEDDING DAY'



N and I have formally given notice at Ealing registry office today. We were amused by the disclaimer they handed to us when we booked the appointment, informing us that ‘THIS IS NOT YOUR WEDDING DAY’. How many people must have turned up at their notice appointments with their entire wedding party in tow for them to bother putting that on the confirmation letter? In block capitals? How dreadfully embarrassing for everybody concerned.

Anyway, it’s official – WE’RE NOT MARRIED – but we will be soon – on the 15 January to be precise. We’d better find somewhere to have the reception I guess…

In the meantime, I will this evening be wrapping Christmas presents in newspaper* and decorating the three Christmas cakes I made last week.

We used up the random tin of coconut milk with a perfectly passable Thai green curry, although I had to buy a new bag of rice to go with it, which rather defeats the object. Damn it.


*austerity measure.
