LOL, I totally missed it, but I think there muct have been a glitch on some of the reply boxes because there were unfinished (almost said plurks then) answers that now have endings - thanks for pointing it out :-))

Devyl, thanks for taking time to reply - she was quite surprised so many people were willing to help her out.
Thanks for the reply Ploon - I'm not sure why some of your answer got lost, but it did answer the basic three - thanks!

4. Yes and expect to be until the bitter end!! - that's so you! Thanks Cat


Cheers for the reply Aries - it's good to see some relationships last so well!
What a strong family tree you're making CBD! Thanks :-)
Thanks for the reply and the good wishes, Tara. How did you come to decide on Gretna Green? I've always wondered how far people will go to get married there.

Mike & I decided to have our wedding & honeymoon in one and eventually chose Scotland. We looked at many venues for the ceremony, but they all seemed a little much considering it would be just the two of us (we had to pay an extra 30 pounds for witnesses!). Gretna seemed like the perfect place since it has such a history of eloping!

We are MacDonald's so we went to Skye and ate lunch at the B&B owned by Lord & Lady MacDonald of MacDonald, and also went to Edinburgh for the Fringe Festival & Military Tattoo! We put 1100 miles on our rental car touring all over that wee country!

Loved every minute!

You do know it is not a legal requirement to take your husband's name on marriage? My husband's surname is a rather yukky medical condition so, although the children do take his name, I retained my pre-wedding name.

To be fair, his name is horrible AND I had already changed my name once already through my mother's divorce and subsequent remarriage!
lol I wanted to get rid of my maiden name. It was Weiszhaar. I was sick of being at the end of the alphabet...and I could never spell it right (yes yes, I had it for 23 years and still couldn't spell it right!) Now I am Armstrong. Much easier. Beginning of the alphabet AND by fluke, my sister had married an Armstrong so we still have the same last name! :)
Snort - are you and your sister always so close? I have stuck with Davis - the worst people can do with that is stick an E in and make it Davies. Simple.
