        Some Dom Perignon or a nice Bordeaux would be lovely, thank you! Should go well with BBQ!

        LOL!

                The BBQ is probably better than an English wedding in my humble opinion but stand to be corrected.

                I am not much an alcohol drinker....perhaps those who wants to drink please BOYB might be easier. I will take care of the non-alcoholic drinks.

                  LionCity, I totally agree but alas there is work to be done in Wales!

                  Here's to cheers and beers!

                    The guest list is growing slowly. At the moment we have the following:

                    SMK77
                    MSPEconomist
                    MeYou
                    kyo
                    2 Mystery Guests
                    concept


                    Maybe:

                    SQFG
                    kapitan

                    Extremely Unlikely but plausible:

                    jjpb3 (Sorry...brought a lottery ticket and if I strike the first prize will send a suite ticket on SQ for you come over a Friday morning and return on Sunday morning all in their respective local times and also sorry for not asking you first! But forgiveness is easier than permission so they said)

                      Awww, thank you for thinking of me in the face of such potential wealth. How can I not forgive?

                      I'll keep my fingers crossed for the only way the trip for me can be plausible.

                        As someone who has spent many a happy time down in South Wales, who has lived with a girl from there for years and who has some of my very best mates down there, all I will say is be careful which Welsh people you tell you are at an English Wedding when in Wales. It's the sort of mistake you only tend to make once..

                          Arr yes, how quickly I forget! Made that mistake once in Aberdeen when I commented to a cab driver how nice it was to hear someone speak ENGLISH again (this was after my first month in Norway). "It's bl**dy SCOTTISH!", he snapped back. Mind you it was a really, really long drive to Montrose that afternoon and I never made that mistake again in Scotland!

                          It will be interesting though as the groom is half English (London) and half Norwegian while the bride is originally from Bath IIRC (her family moved to Carmarthen a couple of years ago). So yup it will be an English wedding in Wales!

                          Hope I survive... Wish me luck...

                            In fairness the Welsh are nowhere near as bitter as the Scots so it's a much more serious mistake to make up there.

                              No need to get into a panic when you're not the bride or the groom!

                                That part does not worry me, it's the controlling-my-mouth-hoping-not-to-insult-the-Welsh-by-calling-them-English bit that I am thinking about!
