Things to plan for the wedding

Posted on April 6, 2006 By admin 10 Comments on Things to plan for the wedding

People are aghast that we are beginning, in April, to plan our wedding for October. To this, I saw pshaw. We have listed all the details we need to arrange, and they all fit, scribbled on the back of a BP petrol receipt.

Our budget is as follows:

-£200 for tux rental/shirt/shoes/haircut for me
-£200 for bridesmaid dress/hair/makeup for Rita
-£600 for wedding dress/hair/makeup for Katy
-£1500 for hall rental & buffet (location probably being Chilford Hall, in Cambs)
-£300 for wine/booze
-£200 for wedding cake
-£900 for wedding rings
-£100 for disposable cameras for guests

And we still need to figure in the costs for:
– invitations
– car service
– bouquet and flowers

As well as:
– making mixed CDs for background music
– selecting a gift registry
– figuring out what paperwork is involved
– getting the license from the registry office
– planning the buffet menu

A week of productive head-banging

Posted on April 6, 2006 By admin

The work I've been doing for the last week, trying to massage somebody else's data to make a square peg fit into a round hole, turned out to be a complete and utter waste of time. The data is shit, corrupted and inconsistent and I have just informed the person who gave it to me that it is so. I could say that I hope he doesn't hate me for it, but honestly, that would be a lie.

Quote of the day

However, you do *need* rules. Driving on the left (or the right or, in parts of Europe, on the left and the right as the mood takes you) is a rule which works, since following it means you're more likely to reach your intended rather than your final destination.
--(Terry Pratchett, alt.fan.pratchett)
