 :beers:

Don't do it. all ends in missery and everythings shit :soapy tit wank:

Seriously congrats mate. It's a great day and a quality piss up etc.
really enjoyed mine.

Congratulations!

Ace news Sam but WHY GET MARRIED IN THE FOOTBALL SEASON!!!!!!  School boy error my son, congratulations though mate

(ps half of everything)

Congrats mate.

8) Dont forget you promised I could be page boy.

Im getting married in the morning!! :mrgreen:

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

I remember!

Football season wedding?! Tut tut...

It's also my birthday as well.

I'm going to be uber drunk.

 8)

yeah right you can get fucked, thats a saturday....

Just make sure you get a dowry for your troubles Sam  :D

Congrats!

:beers: congrats Sam

congratulations.

enjoy the wedding fayres...

Nice. You should have kept it quiet though. Now you've got to watch out for the traditional tef pre-wedding Bennett bum rape.

Sam - give me a shot if you need a semi-pro photographer.

Congratulations by the way.

Cheers, I'll bear it in mind.

Sam - Give me a shot if you need a semi-pro washing up technician.

Cheers Ben  8)

Although I feel my biggest problem is going to be choosing my Best Man, I lost touch with all my mates from school and now I'm just a sad loner with internet friends.  :(

Of course, that was meant to say shout (not shot), but if you're offering shots, some metaxa would be nice...

My better half is working up to be a photographer. She did a friend's wedding in January, for free, just to develop her portfolio.

Please please please book a professional photographer (I swear that was the biggest mistake I made when I got married, skimped on the photographer, and my missus has never let me forget it  :x ), but if you, your intended and the OP are happy to have an enthusiastic amateur tail around, she'll be up for it. And probably do you a good deal on any prints (just cover costs).

Congrats to you and Nickie mate

Ill buy you both a drink Saturday

 :beers:

Nice one Sam...good luck fella.
 :beers:

Getting married in the footy season, tut, tut. Thumb, under  :wink:

Congratulations Sam but have to join in the chrous of disapproval re the during season date. It's all very well thinking "Oh, it's just one game" now, but you've now set yourself up for a lifetime of not being able to go to early season games because "It's our wedding anniversary darling, surely you'd rather spend it with me". If Yeovil's going to be pageboy, make sure he catches the bouquet.

Congrats Sam.....when did you propose???
Only ask as I proposed to my girlfriend on Monday evening!!!
We're looking at May/June but haven't sat down to find a venue or anything so don't have a specific date.

Christmas Day  8)

Soppy tart

 :wink:

I think you'll find it's called 'True romantic'  :mrgreen:

Surely thats one saturday every seven years though ?

 :wink:

Plus the missus is a ST holder as well so it doesn't even matter.

Sam I don't go to games anyway so I'll bring my friends Busted along as well. They love a good wedding

I thought Yeovil had designated himself to that position too?

MK away was a good laugh  :D

UNDERSTATEMENT

 8)

Dont need to bring them Si 'cos they'll crash it !

Yes it was a rather spiffing day out,and we won :beers:

Congrats Sam :beers:

Get yourself sorted Larwood and we will see you Saturday

 :beers:

I can't Fred,i haven't got a ticket and i haven't got any way to get up there.To quote the mighty Zep 'Its no bodies fault but mine'.

Tickets on the day and get on the bus!

Only 500. Do you reckon they will go? Not sure if i want to risk it or not?!!

oh and unlike this 'orrible lot Sam, congrats and I'll be at your wedding even if it is a matchday  8)

What bus?Thought it was all ticket too?Sort it out for me sonic,i'm as weak as a kitten due to man flu :(

Lets get on a mission to make sure Larwood gets there

there ARE some pay on the day tickets !

Talk Talk

Lift wise ?

Arh,your sweet,just been looking and their are some tickets available on the day.Guess i could get the train.

Try and get you on the bus mate

:ontopic:

Sorry Sam.

Congrats again :D

So will I Buddy !

 8)

I'm confused again. Is Sam's wedding all ticket?

Its for season ticket holders only ben, don't you know anything  :-))(  :wink:

is it seasons ticket holders 08/09? We'll be in the Championship by then.

Got everything sorted!

Wedding at Purton church, sit down meal at Blunsdon House then evening reception at the VWH Club in Cricklade.

 :beers:

Silly man.

Your life is over.

 :|

But on the other hand, your get all your washing done for you and meals cooked.

\ :D /

And it's a regular shag (hopefully)

My workmate says sex is over as soon as you cut the wedding cake.

Only with the wife mate..................only with the wife

As a general rule, sex is over when I open my gob  :|

Bukkake style ??????

No that would imply that sex was over once my gob was closed. It's probably a good thing, but you really didn't think that one through

:D  :D

Lot of travelling just to get your leg over, do they still have regular punch-ups on Saturday nights in Cricklade High Street?  Used to be quite enjoyable when the Down Ampney and Maiseyhampton gangs met up!

Sam, why aren't you getting married on the County Ground pitch ?

Sit down meal in the Winners.

Evening do in the County.

Yeovil Red can be the vicar.

I will drive the car.

Mex can sort the evening music.

Talk Talk can be photographer.

bollocks, we all saw you pull the other week!

All joking aside Sam mate

Well done.................I,m sure it will be an absolute cracking day mate !

You'll all be invited to the evening party  :D

 :oops:

Ace



Thanks mate

Why is it so fucking unbelievably hard to choose a song for the first dance. Grrr.

I suggest this one

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8NhJNpQlsY

 :soapy tit wank:

Ace

You just need something slow and smoochy Sam.

No shit, Sherlock.


My first dance song was A Groovy Kind Of Love  8)

I have never had a slow dance  :(

We're leaning towards Damien Rice - The Blower's Daughter at the moment.

My first dance is going to be kellis I hate you so much right now  :D

Anyone want to be my best man?

Was going to ask my old man but he's not speaking to me.

I'm fucking stumped who to ask now.

Fuckity fuck.

me...i vetted you for our wonderful win at hartlepool opening you up further to the wonder that is the TEF

I'll bear it in mind

I can see fred doing it now

'COME ON STAND UP AND SING YOU BASTARDS!!'

It'll go down a treat....

Havent you got like a real life friend you've know for years or something  :oops:

Erm... in a word... no.

Loser

Even I've got real life mates  :P

Ummm....I'd get flammableBen to do it, it would be drunken and funny at least.

Also, depends who the bridesmaids are  :D


Bloody 'ell that last line made me sound like fatbury!

Cheers for the moral support  :cry:

It's causing me real frustration. I lost touch with all my 'best' friends after college. I really haven't got a fucking clue who to ask.

Just have to hope things with my old man patch up a bit quick.

you've got a football team you never socialise with

what happened with your old man sam?

thats because I dont like most of them....

.....and like you Sam I've kept in touch with no one from school well in my year, no one from college and pretty much one person from Nationwide.

I'm just lucky that my best mate lives next door, the other lives across the road and the other one lives in the next street.

 :D

I'll try and keep it short, but here goes. Him and my mum split up years ago and my dad moved out. He used to see me and my sister every other weekend.

After I left school I went off and did my own thing and didn't really keep in touch, but still saw him about once a month, so did my sister.

Out of me and my sister I was my dad's favourite really, he used to spoil me and not her.

With me moving out of home and everything I kind of lost touch a bit more, but not totally. Lately though my sister has become the favourite. My dad begrudingly gave me and Nic a few grand to help towards the mortgage deposit, but was quite reluctant.

Now my dad moans to my sister that I never get in touch with him and says he's tried to contact me loads of times (which is bollocks). He went off on holiday on saturday without even telling me, saturday was his birthday. I didn't have a chance to get a card for him or anything and I'll get more shit for it when he gets back.

It just pisses me off that he whinges about me not contacting him and saying he's tried to get in touch with me when he blatently hasn't. This might sound a bit naive of me, but he's my dad and he should make an effort.

it's easier to moan about stuff than to do anything (like be the bigger man) and do something about it..

just look at most of us on here for gawds sake!

sounds a pickle though...if you actually do manage to make contact you're only doing it "cos he's been moaning" etc.


that'll be £10 please

Exactly my predicament.

i suggest you moan to your sister you try to contact him and he never answers etc

and then meet at hers and hug

maybe after a roast dinner or something wonderfully british like that?

i'm terrible with advice, but you'll regret it if your dad isn't at your wedding even if he's to blame.

failing everything else, get a best woman, fuck tradition!

I'll definitely get in touch with him at some point and he will be at the wedding.

I'll give him a while to calm down first.

Families can be complicated. All things aside Sam, i think you'll dad will still be dead proud of you when you get married.

Sam, Whatever you do make sure you, your dad and your sister get it together before the wedding! Families are important and you sometimes don't realise it until it is too late.  My wife fell out with her parents many years ago, so much so that when her dad fell terminally ill her mother would not let her know that he was asking for her!  Luckily one of their neighbours let my wife know what was going on and she saw him three times before he died.  Unfortunately, I don't think she will ever make it up with her mother, she never let my wife know her dad had died or when the funeral was.  Luckily the neighbour and another member of the family kept us informed.  They never sat together or spoke at the funeral or since, bite the bullet and make the first move if you have to Sam.

nice one fella! congrats to you and the missus :)

Got the Best Man all sorted now, what have a let myself in for. My Best Man is....





























































Fred  :D

How many people turned the job down then Sam? :soapy tit wank:  :soapy tit wank:

:shock:  fucking hell sam........... you will die on your stag do, you do know that don't you!  :D

Not trying to be a shit, but it does take two to tango, you're his son and you should make the effort too.  People get a bit touchy when getting older maybe your old man just feels a bit left out.

Not sticking up for him but just putting across a point of view (without knowing any of the details).  Apologies if offence is taken!

Jans right, perhaps if you made more of an effort with people in general you would have mates that wern't to do with an internet forum.I didnt make the effort with my old chap he kicked the bucket before we got a chance to talk.

Umm sorry if that seems a bit harsh :|

Can you imagion the speech

'Sam and me follow Swindon together, SWINDON SWINDON SWINDON, that diamandis is a CUNT, sorry sam BUT HE IS'

Don't worry about it being harsh, it's all constructive criticism.

Yeah maybe I didn't make an effort to keep in touch with friends after school and college, but they've not made the effort with me either.

You all probably think I'm a right saddo asking Fred because I haven't got any 'real' mates, but I do see Fred as a real mate - just because I got to know him through an internet forum doesn't make him any less real.

I've asked Whits and Blackcurrant  to be my bridesmaids  :D

What about me you slaaaaaaaaag?! :(

Ok but only if you wear a pink dress

sorry Sam but Fred isn't a real mate.























he's made entirely of feta cheese. he sleeps in a refrigerator 8)

i can't wait for fred's speech :mrgreen:

How about a comprimise and make it lilac?

yeah that's do-able  :D

Who said you're coming  :wink:

I dont doubt you consider him a "real" mate and ive met some people off here who id consider real mates...dunno if id have them as my best man though id have thought you need a bit history with someone to be  a best man.
But thats neither here nor there as im not getting married anytime soon(still saving for a for an Asian buy a bride ...(is buying a wife sadder than being friends with Fred...Jurys out   :D   ))
To be honest Sam there are loads of chaps like you who hook up with a bird and forget they ever had any friends.Some live happily ever after and some find themselves newly single in x amount of years time with no friends and no life.Im sure you will be the first option though.

wasnt it decided at Franchise in January that Yeovil Red was going to be best man?

page boy  :x

And the page boy, and the vicar...

and you wonder why you've got no mates  :wink:

In the time you wrote that you could of rang your old man or got him a birthday card.

I hadnt read this sam, but fuck me your dad helped you live with your mrs and gave you money for a deposit.  Do you realise how lucky you are? My father left when I was 3, fuck it thats life.  I now work in a building with him as rent an office from him but he knows nothing about my life apart from work.  Never talks footy, women, cars, life or anything.  Your fathers your father if you want him in your life, instead of feeling upset shes his favourite maybe try and get involved with him yourself.  Show him your websites youve created or whatever else you do.  Sorry for teh rant but these things are two ways.

Spot on bushey.Sam why is it too late to ring him and ask about being best man

Spot on bushey.Sam why is it too late to ring him and ask about being best man

Blood is thicker than water at the end of the day....

that depends. can a plane take off if it's on a treadmill?

All depends which way its facing??  :mrgreen:

I don't need life coaching from you lot, I'll make my own decisions thanks.

I'll speak to my dad when I want to and I'll have who I want as my best man.

you go girlfriend  :D

Have you thought of Relate, Sam? :D

I just think everyone's being a bit cuntish trying to tell me what to do.

If something is put in the public arena, people will comment - be it advice, piss taking whatever...

you asked mate.

Bollocks. :D

Fair enough I appreciate I posted it and I accept the responses, what I'm trying to say is I'm not neccessarily going to take people's advice.

How very dare you?! :x  :D

I hope your cheeks were shaking with rage as you said that!

It was an all over spasm of sorts.... :|

To be fair if you put something in the public arena, people will comment on - be it advice, piss taking whatever. Well that's what I think anyway.........  :wink:

I am the oracle.

Sort of.

Sam if you dont want comments dont put it up in the first place, no need to get all girly about it.  People tried to give you sound advice.

Some of the advice was more critical than it needed be to be fair.

Bloody hell you ain't getting married for over a year! We should have a 1 year left party (read: pub crawl) for you in August.

Sam have you ever considered counselling from Ralphy ?

That is an excellent idea Reg!

Sam can I adopt your Dad? I don't have one now Fred's being all bummy with you.

Christ I am being a bit of a drama queen aren't I  :mrgreen:

Just a tad, but mate in all honesty spme people have no parents or family so if I were you id sort it sooner rather than later

I've made contact with the old codger this evening, he's still a bit grumpy but at least that first stumbling block is out of the way.

Buy him some old spice. It'll be a grand gesture

Or Brut 33 if you want to do it in style.

Good thinking Sussex. A man of good taste.

Nah, I'm going to nip down the offy and grab some cans of Super Tennants and we'll go and sit in the park  :mrgreen:

Sam, just read this.

Who do you normally go out with at nights drinking?

Who do you spend the most time with?

They should be you're best man.

If that person is Fred, then fair do's.

My best man will be a car. :D

1) My missus

2) My missus

Do you not go out on the piss with any lads?

Nope.

I'm sad me.

** Bump **

My bank balance hurts  :cry:

Wedding dress, bridesmaid dresses, honeymoon, photographer...

And yet there's still so much to book and pay for...

Can't parents help you out Sam?

I've told my dad if I ever get married he is paying. He said no but my mum said oh yes he is when he left the room  :D

marry me birdy.

ok  :D

Result!

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Good for Nicky  :D  

It'll be worth it when you see her coming down the aisle Sam!

They are. Nic's are paying for the afternoon meal at Blunsdon House and mine are paying for the evening reception.

It had better be worth it on the wedding night  :shag:

That's alright, you could get Sippo to do the disco  8)

Chubbs the picture of that ring you just sent me was lush  :D

Coxy and his better half will be back in England by then, have you asked if he can cut a deal for her to do the photography?

err cant she wait til later

In all honesty, get a pro to do it. Rach would, but its a lot of pressure if something goes wrong - just ask her about our own wedding photos next time you see her - Forest away hopefully!

You could still invite us though  :mrgreen:

Yeah, we've booked a photographer. But if Rach wants to come along to get some shots for her portfolio then you're more than welcome.

Deal! Make sure you tell the official photographer though, we've found some get a bit tetchy about interlopers. We'll work something out.

Good rates.  8)

I'm doing my own. Got our first dance song sorted already. She doesn't know yet!  :mrgreen:

I just need to say...

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK! Time goes quickly!

I just needed to get that off my chest. Deep breath. Ah, that's better.

ill be at V festival getting twatted! ill havea drink for you!

Chill !!!!!

I've still got over a year to mine, time hasn't gone that fast so far, but I bet in a years time I'll be packing it!!

Wait until you've got about a month to go Jan, then you'll be packing it. Up until then you generally just throw it off with "It's ok, we've still got X months to go" but the reality hits you when you start counting in weeks instead of months.

Anyway, roll on Friday and a right good lash up :cool:

Could be difficult - it's my sisters and Adi Williams' Birthdays that day - but if your missus lady garden needs mowing I'm your man :-)

Cant wait

Have not been out in monnnnnnntttttthhhhhssssss

 :dog:

I've managed to get my old man to come as well, should be a good night :beers:

Well it turns out that I've been married 3 years today....seems like much longer, time does fly....she bought me a CD as a prezzie, I bought her.....nothing (Well I lie, I bought her a choc bar) - why do women always want to celebrate every occasion with gifts and us blokes don't ??!!

Now you know why you are not getting any

 ;) :D
