The mail do nick stories from them all the time though? I appreciate that writing fuck off at the top doesn’t stop that however, and it’s always posters with the least interesting posts that do it, like not even the Sunday sport would make a story out of that.I hate when they have FUCK OFF DAILY MAIL at the top of their dull story. Like the mail or anyone else cares.
That would probably be Mumsnet.Was it on Mumsnet or Digital Spy, where a thread about getting a pearl necklace was moved to Style and Beauty?D
Yeah, for some reason the cheaper and shitter your ring and wedding day were, the better person you are.There is currently an ‘cost of engagement ring’ thread, one of my favourites as it really brings out the craziest people.
There is one poster who claims she would be ‘mortified’ if her husband spent too much on her ring- lets be real, you wouldn’t be mortified you’d love it, and he obviously hasn’t spend a few k’s and nothing wrong with that, but don’t act like you’re above others because you have a cheaper ring and obviously your marriage means more
In our 30s we were the same. Our record was 7 weddings in one year. We didn’t go to a couple of them.I sort of share this attitude about weddings. When I was approaching 30, I'm long past it now, loads of my mates got married. In a 6 month period I had 11 weddings, each invite was like a summons.
I now hate weddings, I hate the ostentatious hype of it all, i hate how much it costs me, I hate the one upmanship.
Don't understand the engagement ring cost though, come on, if it goes tits up, you want to be able to sell that thing.
haha it was annoying! We were ‘the greedy’ couple who asked for money, purely because in my culture its tradition to gift with gold/jewellery which we have NO use for and it would have ended up more expensive for the guests which I would have hated.18 champagne flutes? I don’t even have 18 assorted glasses. How annoying that must have been! I’d chuck one in the fire after I use it.
Except it would just bounce back off the gas bars.
I know! It’s even better than a wedding list for lack of effort on my part, people who don’t like to give cash are weird. I do like a wedding though, I love a nice frock, hat dance and a piss up. Sadly I haven’t really been invited to enough to have ever got fatigued by them.....now I’m wondering why? Maybe a pound coin taped in a card isn’t enough?haha it was annoying! We were ‘the greedy’ couple who asked for money, purely because in my culture its tradition to gift with gold/jewellery which we have NO use for and it would have ended up more expensive for the guests which I would have hated.
But obviously some weren’t happy with the money requests
me personally, I love money requests,
Makes it so much easier and I don’t have to stress about what to get.
Funny how you never see an ‘I’m going to Iceland/Farmfoods/Home Bargain’s for the first time’ thread though isn’t?‘Going to aldi/Lidl for the first time, what shall I buy’, what do they think it sells ?????
