Thanks Lonnie )

The dinner went *extremely* well, except my hors d'euvres were a bit

wasted on them! LOL I arranged artistically on a plate: sliced melon,

flat leaved parsley and dill, chicory leaves, upon which I put rolled

up smoked salmon and a cherry tomato. I think the most they ate was

the melon, smoked salmon and maybe a tomato. I threw all the salady

veg in the dustbin. I thought: OK they don't like salad. But then

WHY, during the (very popular) main course, did they help themselves

to salad from the bowl and LEAVE it?!?! LOL !! But they all loved

the brisket, cabbage and roast potatoes, which went down a treat.

They seem very nice people indeed, and more importantly

EASY-to-deal-with people, who aren't going to raise any objections or

make any stipulations on the wedding plans; whatever is good for us,

suits them too. We are looking at either the 22nd or 29th January or

somewhere around that date. Mid week weddings are common, we don't do

Saturdays of course. Tuesdays have a special " karma " of their own,

and are considered a good day to marry on.
