I think she was thrilled actually :-)) got my little pyramid and place card on the mantelpiece with Jan and Rick's table dec - memories in plain sight :-))) I loved the little message in the pyramid

xxxxxxxxxxxx

Maz,
Lol!
But I think maybe she was a bit surprised when I thanked her in my speech! But she is good at listening to me moan, and she is my 'second mum!'

:-)

ah but if 'she who cannot be named' had started, we'd still be sat there listening to her now :-)))

Uggers,
Refined? Me?? lol

SS,
I had a mix of both names today, Started off in married name as I suppose people had thought about it, But by lunchtime I was back to Miss. Will take time!

Kaz,
Thanks for the good wishes!
As for the hat, Obviously it had to be worn at an angle! ;-)

Kay,
Yes thats true! Signed 2 letters wrong today!

Pat

its not being called MRS, that a problem ,,its remembering to sign it,,,,:)))

glad it all went well...........

Hi Pat

It sounds like you had a fabulous day - many congratulations- altho' sounds like water wings might have been needed with all the happy tears lol

xx
Kaz

PS I did wear my Aston Villa bobble hat in your honour - obviously I wore it at a jaunty angle so you wouldn't think I had no class!

Oh lordy, I did a short spell in a school when I was about 18, it was incredibly weird being called Miss "such n'such" can't imagine how much more weird it would be to be called by a different name. It may work in your favour though as it will get you used to it. *wonders how many you'll ignore til you realise they're talking to you*

lol, yeh Pat you're a more refined version of my artificial flower maker ancestors;))

So pleased for you it all went well :) would love to see your flowers some time.

Uggers,
Yes I heard about that! She should have, All compliments would have been greatly received!
pmsl

Pat

MM,
They were both fine!
I had already replaced the cake with a different one that I was happy with.
The flowers I kept and had loads of comments about how beutiful they were!
I even gave Maz, Jean and Uggers a demonstration of how to make them! lol
You could call me that but Pat would be fine! lol Anyway he's not a gypsy, So wouldn't be completley accurate! lol

SS,
Yeah I think it will. i work in a school, Go back tomorrow. It will seem very strange once the children start using my new name!

Pat

We all knew what he'd done lol - although we had to stop someone who can't be named from jumping on the table to say how beautiful you looked ;)

Should we call you Mrs Gypsy Girl now?

I guess it will take a while to sink in, hun :-)

Gypsy your back how were the cake and flowers?

Yeah I know, I didn't know if other people noticed too though!
Also when he did his speech, He was quite emotional but didn't want to show it, and then forgot what he had wanted to say! He keeps saying that he's sorry for not talking about me!
:-)

He was definitely on the verge, Pat:))

Suzy,
We were a bit different, We walked in together.
He did very nearly cry when I did my speech though. I think it tugged at his heart a little!
Pat

SS,
No not really! I had waited almost 14 years for that day and thee's still a part of me that doesn't quite believe it!
David is right, I only stopped smiling to cry! But they were happy tears!

Pat

LOL Uggers

Are you sure she stopped then? *wonders about the possibility of smiling while blubbing*
