Weekend Updates

The weekend was crazy-busy for us. It was all systems go from Friday night, with Scott's parents heading down to come and look at the hall with us. Scott went to the hall straight from work, while Kelly met both sets of parents at the flat and they all made their way to the hall together.

Once at the hall, we started by setting up a couple of tables in the general way we wanted them. Just to get an idea. This didn't work so well for Kelly, who insisted on setting up all of them. Just to be sure. It turns out that this wasn't such a bad idea as we had to try three layouts before we agreed on the final one. But rest assured, it's all under control now. No, really.

After this, talk turned to decorations and the setting up of cake tables and other such issues. All in all, we identified exactly how unorganised we are. Excellent.

Hunger pangs eventually got us moving again and we headed out to the Point to get fish and chips to eat under the lighthouse. This was almost a disaster. There was no light anywhere near the lighthouse (or any tables for that matter) and it was rather cold, not to mention the wind. We ended up eating in the car, and as we didn't all fit in one car, this left conversation a little difficult. But the fish and chips were great.

At this point we're going to leave you in suspense (oh, how will you sleep?), wondering what happened during the rest of the weekend. Which is code for: "We're tired and can't be bothered writing anymore tonight".
