phone GPS is fairly inaccurate for running, if you want better accuracy you’d need to buy a GPS watch (can be gotten refurbished on ebay for cheap enough)
To be fair his wife-to-be is from Spain so it works for them, but the first wedding was different. But the abroad thing is a whole different ball game financially really.
Yeah they were stupidly stringent on the rules although to be fair to them at least they took things seriously compared to the county leagues. Gonna be interesting to see what hockey clubs and leagues are like in Scotland, will be very weird to not know anyone.
Got told recently that the rule is “No ring, no bring.” My GF wasn’t invited to the massive wedding of one of my best mates next month as we’re not engaged.
Yeah, it’s tough even within the UK (if I still lived there) tbh. I think it is also tricky as my friends who have gotten married this year all earn wa-a-a-y more than I do so there are different expectations around money and cost and affordability. I shouldn’t feel bad about it but still do really.
you know what to do then, eh.
I can’t afford a suit, let alone a ring!
that’s fucking ballbags behaviour man
This is apparently how it’s gone with weddings in Ireland.
I’m not too miffed at my mate though, he’s flying over from L.A. with his fiancé and kid to get married in a really pricey venue. Any cost cutting on his end is understandable.
it would really bother me to think that someone’s partner couldn’t come or my friend couldn’t come to a wedding because they couldn’t afford it, to be honest. Absolutely no one has ever not enjoyed a cheap as chips wedding in a hall or whatever with a cheesy DJ and buffet.
We had our jabs today too. She’s been ok, but is a little more grizzly than normal.
Yeah, I think weddings have gone a bit mental really in terms of expense and ‘lavishness’…but then I guess maybe I’m just bitter because I got ditched by my fiancee halfway through planning
Fair enough that, but it’s a shame for you though eh!
spot on.
Aye, it is a shame. Would have loved to have the GF at it. There’ll be more weddings though!
Three out of the five weddings I have been to in the last five years were of that kind.
jesus. did you ever get the ankle looked at?
would offer you some meaningless platitudes and patronising advice but I don’t think that would be helpful
Sorry what?!
got this sorted out, you’ll be glad to know. so tedious
now I’m going to drink some beer and blast some fucked up in anticipation of seeing them on friday
we have the same rug
