By the way, I instantly guessed "iphone" when you asked about what we think was in his sporran.<br /><br />Expensive weddings and other celebrations are another expression of the self-indulgence which is not bad in itself, but is being taken a step too far by many these days. They see how "celebrities" have big dos for each and every occasion and want to live the same lifestyle, feel like a celebrity even if only for a few days. It's mostly way over the top, pompous and I can not even imagine it is much fun for the bride and groom - with so many guests around they can't possibly talk to everyone, and such high bills to pay.<br />I have been married twice. We had no hen or stag parties and I dare say the lack of these (and the modest celebrations both times) were NOT responsible for my divorce from husband No. 1 or the untimely death of husband No. 2.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-297233541488175402018-08-14T04:35:45.131+01:002018-08-14T04:35:45.131+01:00:) I'm always out of kilter!
