That wedding thread is a riot! Drunken falling over son, fisticuffs with the band, feral grandchildren. God, I wish I’d been there! I love a chavvy wedding with a good punch up as after dinner entertainment.

It’s more than a bit thrilling. You just know there was at least one person weeping in the loos, whilst shouts of ‘leave it Dave, ‘e ain’t WERF it’ ricocheted across the grazing platters and glasses of champagne for everyone. I wish I’d been there.
 
My SiL’s new MiL announced proudly at their wedding that one person in their family would ALWAYS be the ‘FD’ (family drunk) at the wedding and disgrace themselves. They are enormously posh. Turned out the FD that night was her.

Luckily the working class side kept their end up as my SiL’s cousin had to be carried out not long after the speeches.

It’s hilarious! OP ‘can’t be left alone!’ she’s in such a state! Suicidal, wondering if she should divorce her wonderful husband…it’s all nonsense of course, thinking that holding her SiL’s hand and ‘gently’ telling him how annoyed she was because he didn’t mention the husband, (she was fed up holding her tongue) and decided his wedding was the right time and place! Then Ronnie and Reggie bundled the husband out of the hall 😂😂😂 God, I’d have loved to have been a fly on the wall!
 
I'm off to a wedding this evening. I shall not be wearing a Natasha inspired toothpaste dress, but am doing some cultural appropriation and wearing a lehenga as my mate has Indian heritage and she asked us to.
I think any fisticuffs will be unlikely, but what is likely is me tripping over the 100 or so metres of fabric that is in the skirt and making a complete tit of myself! As long as I stay away from the band and don't break anything...
 
I’m enjoying the competitive supermarket spending thread. OP spends £1000 a month for a family of 4. There’s a lot of people saying how insane that is, a few saying they spend similar and then you’ve got the ones saying they eat similar to the diet of I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here and only spend £100 a month for a family of 14

One poster had to drop in that she’s just back from the local farmers market after spending £274 on meat for her professional athlete teenage children

I do hope you’ve started the day with ballon’s, champagne and grazing platters?

They'd have to be professional bodybuilders to carry that lot home. It's over 50kg of meat, then all the sausages and bacon and whatever as well.
Bloody cheap - but feck me their poor arteries!
