You are handsome! You'll do great!
Ellie cycled to work with wet hair and now it's gone REALLY curly on the lower layer of her hair and looks ridiculous.
Oh and I burnt off 1500 calories yesterday thanks to cycling, 3.5 mile run, and Touch Rugby!

Thanks Ellie. It's been a got of stress and hassle so I am just glad that it is nearly over. My daughter is going to get mega payback during my speech (years of material stored up!).
Photographs done, right on the main road through the town. Me holding my cardboard cut out. White van men on their horns. Great.

Haha - love Dads.
It was my Dad's 50th Birthday meal the other day and I made a speech (off the cuff) and was somehow funny, touching and amazing. And I even made people cry at the table, and they came up to me afterwards and said how lovely it was.
My lovely boyfriend said "couldn't have the attention off you for 2 minutes could you?"
So I cried the rest of the day.

Fantastic! Hope I go down as well. I won't be too mean to my daughter (but I am going to mention the time when she was about 7 when she said "I close my eyes and picture you lying dead on the floor!"

My mum said when I was three I came home from nursery and told her to get my f**king shoes off.
She said she didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but had to ignore it.
Ha!
Off the cuff speeches are fine. But speeches in general make me want to die. Unless the person giving it is exceptionally confident, the fact they're really nervous makes me nervous, and the whole thing is just horrible. Down with speeches at weddings, I say!
I suspect you're one of them confident types though Will, so you'll be fine

Did she keep them on though?
