I am working... on my speech...  Banghead

Swiped from BM's computer, the (in)famous speech so far:

"I've known mini barmanette for a couple of years now and........er.......um.......(cue to sit down)"

 whistle:

other than the "insert vomit story here" it has been a privilege and a pleasure to watch her grow up into the beautiful, confident young lady you see before you today.

Just a thought but how much has she wound you up over the years BM?

Given that you are a techie you could always make a slideshow presentation to run in the background as youdo your speech. Baby photo's always go down well...  whistle:

He really did! And it was boring.I hadn't written a speech so I improvised. Apparently it was quite amusing, especially my impersonation of Mrs Nick (to be) trying to surprise herself in a mirror ;D

I was dragged round the shops one day to help choose her wedding outfit. That diagram about female shopping that someone posted recently eapplies. We ended up in Sloane Street. I was so pissed off that I went outside the shop and stopped a Sloaney Lady passer by and asked her to arbitrate.

To my amazement she produced a packet of pins from her wicker basket, got down on her knees and began making alterations. eeek:

I left!
