Scary morning

Nick & I had to go to Ecclesiastical Court this morning! It was all a bit serious. First of all we arrived and had to give over £50, then we were ushered into a waiting room with a bunch of nervous looking young couples and wait for ages. We were the last ones to be called and finally had to go through to this very official looking room with a big wooden desk. Anyway there was this reverend there, a canon or something, plus his assistant. He sat us down and asked us if we had ever been married before (no guvnor), if we were related (no) or if we knew of any reason we could not be married (hmm, no). Then after the probing questions he made us stand up, put our right hands on the bible and swear we were telling the truth. I was grinning like a loon the entire time becuase I found it all a bit surreal and ridiculous, which I don't think he appreciated. So at the end of it all we were issued with a bit of paper that says we are allowed to get married! It's all above board now.

I had a lovely chicken/bacon salad for lunch and now I have a couple of viewings. This evening I can't believe it but we are going out for a curry again, I am going to be sweating spices out of every pore. But I'm not allowed to stay late or get drunk, as I want to be all bright eyed tomorrow. I have to go on a ferry for an hour which I will hate, and the ferry is full which makes it worse. Someone told me a bunch of footballers are going over to Jersey tomorrow which is just marvellous.
