You should frame them and put them on the piano. My favourite wedding photo is a black and white of myself and my husband emerging from the church after the ceremony. We are closely followed in the porch by two maiden aunts - with cigarettes in hand, clouds of smoke streaming from their nostrels. They were clearly "gasping" as the entire ceremony went on for too long - it is a complete scream! It is framed and takes pride of place, my mother hates that photo.<BR/><BR/>Darling Mr Antiscam,<BR/><BR/>You should remember, I am always completely serious.dulwichmumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17106294077068237863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748453999833334873.post-87310016523060376492007-05-04T23:21:00.000+01:002007-05-04T23:21:00.000+01:00Dear Dulwichmum,I thought you were joking about Gd...Dear Dulwichmum,<BR/><BR/>I thought you were joking about Gdansk, and then I clicked through your link and found you are actually telling the truth.

He is on several of our wedding photos, along with a few maiden aunts. It makes the whole thing look like a rather festive Solidarity meeting. We still call him "Uncle Lech" (although not to his face).Drunk Mummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16213660260846567668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748453999833334873.post-86969592757434223952007-05-04T23:06:00.000+01:002007-05-04T23:06:00.000+01:00Darling Beta Mum,I think that Gdansk could in fact...Darling Beta Mum,<BR/><BR/>I think that Gdansk could in fact be the Brixton of Poland!

I was concerned that perhaps it had become a recent cultural mecca or had a famous opera festival or something.

Well, it would make fascinating blog material, so I reckon that you should give it a go so we can all get a vicarious kick out of it, whatever happens. PS does it have a Tesco yet?Omega Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06510548355469861782noreply@blogger.com
