Wedding events

Ok so I promissed more on the wedding fornt a few months ago.  Where here we go.

It seems that in what only fells like a few weeks has in fact been 7 months.  So here we are only 7 weeks from the big day and everything is starting to get hecktic.

The Minister

Just over a week ago I phoned the minister as we havn’t heard from him in nearly a year and I was starting to get a bit panicy.  So I phone him and he said “I have you booked in for 2.30pm”  My reaction was “No it sould have been 1pm” and asked him does he mind moving to 1pm, then he dropes a bomb shell on me “I have an other wedding that morning at 12.45″ I’m speachless and we end the call with my thinking WTF is he playing at, no really WTF.  I had to break the news to Lynsey, this had to be done in a delacite and kind way.  So i chichen out and phone her at work.  Not the plain but shocked that the minister I wasn’t really thinking.  Lynsey collects me from work, not a word on the drive home (it only takes about 5 minutes but my god they where tense 5 minutes).  In the house Lynsey turned to me and burst in tears.  I did what every man is supose to do and just hugged her and tried to confort her.

Any way Lynsey mum, dad and ben the god appear about 7ish and they help us to see things clearly and then Lynseys dad told us about a minister how did the working of the son of someone he worked with.  A few phones calls later and we have a mess on the ministers answering machine.  Next day we have a message and we phone him back and the wedding is back on track.  We went to church on Sunday to meet the minister and all is good.

The music

About 4 months ago we booked the DJ a guy called Derek West. So we I put a few songs on the wedding list. Its partly Lynsey fault, she fell a sleep early about 2 weeks ago and I was board, I now the password so i thought I know I’ll help out.  Let this be a lesson Nerver let me know you passwords.  I put on some song you know ICE Cube “put you back into it”, 2Pac and Dre “California in love”, some cheese disco stuff, some Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, you know the stuff.

Not my best move as Lynsey looked at it two nights ago and informed my that it was all my music teast and there was no way in hell she was going to let “put you back into” be played as she didnt want everyone to know what we would be doing later(that what she thinks I’m propably going to be to pissed to do anything). So in the spirt of sharing we changed the list slightly.  No more back into, and the ideas for the DJ are there for him to look at.

The Honey Moon

This is what we’ve been looking forward to.  15 days in the sun, our own private Villia with pool, close to the town and no one to tell us what to do.

Thats about it so from the next big thing is the wedding itself. 

Rugby World cup

What a weekend for rugby it was, the quator finals of the rugby world cup and bangor thirds win their 5th game in a row.

Ok so my club team are on a role and I’m proud to be part of the team, although I’m not playing at my best and have only played a few games this seasson due to both my wedding and an ankle injury keeping my out for a game.  Bangor managed to bet Hollywood 74-0 but a few times it look like Hollywood where going to score.

Now for the main rugby games the quartor finals fo the world cup and what an upset it was for the southern hemisfere.

On saturday the repeat of the 2003 world cup final was being played with England betting Austraila again thanks to jonney wilksons boot.  I didnt get to see the game as I was play that afternoon.  Then came what was billed as this years world cup final. 

The mighty All Black against teh host France.  Ok by this stage I had been the Club bar for a few and was back home trying to cook.  But I manage (at lest I think I manage) to see most of the game.  I always new this was going to be a close game, but I never thought that f*&K wit of a ref would have killed off the All Blacks.  There was no way that the All Black player was in the wrong, it should never have been a yellow card that Frence prat ran into him plain and simple and the twat of a ref sent him off and that was the end of the All Blacks.  France have alls had a cheating ablity in their game and it has helped them agian. 

Then Sundys games came true to what everyone thought.  South Africa winning and then a brillient Scotland V Argentina.  I would like to have seen Scotland win that game but Argentina have done nothing but prove themself time and time again in this world cup and I was glad that they wone.  I have been saying for sometime now that the Pumas are wildly underrate as a world team and they have proved it this year.

So next week its up to England to Hammer the Frence. Its a lot to ask of England we all know this but they have found their form and let hope they can do it

Irish rugby world cup.

Thats it its all over for Ireland.  We didnt’ get out of the group stages and we didn’t deserve to either.  Do get me wrong I love Irish rugby and will support them thougth good and bad times. 

But its time the Eddie O’Sullivan faced facts.  His love of O’Gara is miss places, He played the world cup like he was playing 5 years ago.  Totally hit and miss and its time he was benched for a game or two. O’Sullivan need to get over not starting Ulster team men, I have no idea why he only give them a few minutes per game and favers none Ulster men.  Lets face it the Blame lands on O’Sullivan feet and he has to face facts that Ireland where tired before their first world cup game. Again his selection of team member, what the hell was he thinking when he gave that new scrum half his first cap in the world cup??  the six nations is where he sould have started, and dropping Stringer?? probable the best scrum half Ireland have had in years my god O’Sullivan needs he head examined. 

I disagree with the calls for his sacking, lets face it he did manage to bring Ireland out of a major dark spell and give irish fans hope in the team. 

As well as O’suliven I think we need to ask the players what they though they where doing?  Leamy did abbsulity nothing for the four games, normally hes in the thick of it with O’connell.  O’Connell was playing ok until the france game then he started to realize that he was a rugby player and it wasn’t until the last game he came into form again.

Hopefully O’Sullivan will get his head out of his arse and start to play other member of the Ireland squad and not the 18 he relies on week in week out.
