AFTER 12 months in the planning and a sum I don't wish to calculate, it's finally here.
In just 4 days time I will no longer be an hysterical bride-to-be. I will be an even more hysterical wife.

If You Want Anything Done...

Blooming Nightmare...

THE second Big Ben struck 12, it dawned on me.
In six months, 182.621099 days to be precise, I will become the new Mrs Corbett.

Fair Game...

And like most things in life, the novelty has well and truly worn off.

Size Matters...

Mon, 15 Dec 2008 13:02:44 +0000

IT was to be an intimate affair, surrounded by our closest family and friends.

A very decent proposal
