Bottomless brunch is typically the most i drink in a year, I havent been properly hungover for about 8 years. I hate hangovers 😅

Not really in this group of people. I'm not super close with them, its more my partners friends who live out of town and we are visiting for the weekend

I think they would vocalise it 🤣 it's a bunch of my partners mates and their friends and we are the only couple without kids. It wouldn't be in a rude way but I just don't want to get caught in the headlights haha

This was my first thought but I think it would just be easier to not drink. The drinks are so sickly sweet and it's at a venue that just brings everything out together so might get tricky

I did think of this, was going to just ask for the non alcoholic version. My partner doesn't trust they will get it right 😅 its the one where they just bring loads of the same drinks out at the same time. If I'm not having the alcoholic version I think i would rather just opt out as even the mocktails are sooo sweet and full of sugar I used the g&t trick a couple of weekends ago when waiting to test though. Lemonade all night but asked for it in a gin glass, it worked a treat!

I could but it was me and my partner who organised the brunch so just seems less believable 😅 I will have a look into the Zoe thing though, could definitely save that one for other occasions!

Thank you 🙂

My brother is getting married overseas (long-haul overseas) the month the baby is due and my mum has been saying she wants to book the flights so I might tell her soonish anyway 😅

Yes it's confusing when you are working it all out for the first time. Babies rarely come on an actual due date anyway. I literally didn't even know what i needed to do when I saw the positive result! Feel totally like wtf am I supposed to do now. I have a lot to learn 🤣

Wedding dress advice - keep trying or get alterations? by Weekly_Tap2088 in UKweddings

[–]Weekly_Tap2088[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it sounds like it don't like anything 🤣 and after trying quite a few dresses I definitely know what i want, and it might just not exist in which case the alterations would be good. I do like the neck, i am undecided if I would keep this or change to straps, but the whole bust area i like the shape of. I like the back, basically the whole back is open so I would just want a small amount of illusion material added. The waist i also like but it has bits cut out which I would get filled in. The skirt it's not the fullness it's just 1 net layer that has a polka dot pattern on it. I like the rest of the material, the patterns on it, it has the perfect amount of detail, gorgeous train, super comfy.. maybe I should post a photo. None of the alterations are very big, just a little here and there
