I don't know - it's quite fitting for a spreadsheet expert ;)

You are in my phone by your DVP name, which I assume is now wrong!

My new surname is Acheson but I'll always be a Fullerton to the backbone as they say here in Norn iron. :D

This was my modest contribution to the card: an Epithalamium.

Well mine was just some good wishes folded into a box made out of giraffe-print origami paper. Nothing clever about it. :lol:

Mine was very basic as I had a few other things to occupy my mind at the time.

Glad the wedding day went well. It was nice to see the photos.

Imagine picking the whole skirt up and turning it inside out. Then we have Fraggles face surrounded by net petticoat and satin. ;) Nothing else on display I hasten to add.
It would have made a nice pair with the picture from Milton Keynes!

MBH yours was so funny and Ivan was so shocked to see his face on there :lol: The memory of the spacehopper incident will forever live in my mind.

Giraffe yours was clever because the paper said it all!

It didn't matter what it said in the parcels - it was the thought behind them that made them so special and Im a sentimental so I'll keep them forever.

Looby - it was exactly like the toilet incident in Milton keynes! :lol: (Only 10 times more undignified)

Looby I almost forgot - thank you for my lovely hand-stitched card - we were a bit confused because you signed your real name but then we noticed the name on the back!
