h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well Boys and Girls,



The time has come to bid you farewell for a while. The t'internet man is cutting off our lovely connection at some point tomorrow and we will be offline until we get married, get our stuff to Cyprus and convince the nice man there that DDD and I really do need some broadbean in our lives.

My parents arrive on Wednesday to help us get ready (or rather, to help clean the house!) with a few folk turning up on Sunday and then on Monday we are off to Gibraltar to meet DDD's folks and to swear undying devotion to each other on Wednesday 4th April! Only 9 days away! My mother is delighted that she will be spending the afternoon of her baby girl's wedding day hobnobbing with the monkeys and exploring the caves on the Rock - not! She'd rather go to the pub, but it's our day, we insist!

We then return to Portugal to welcome all the rest of the reprobates and have a blessing and reception booked on the beach on Wednesday 11th April, just in case we weren't thorough enough the first time! This will be our proper wedding bash and I'm getting more excited by seeing all my family and friends and DDD's in one place than in the second wedding!

We then have a few days to sober up, relax and holiday with the folks until they all go home and we move to Cyprus on the 18th. It may take us a bit of time to get a desk for the 'puter and get plugged in.

No doubt, DDD will add his own journal entry at some point this evening, but I like to get in early! If it wasn't for this place, then I would never have met the gorgeous, funny, loving, wonderful man that DDD is and wouldn't be planning this very special day with him. Well done Auntie Beeb She's not getting an invite though - no aunties allowed!

So, a new husband, a new country, a new home and a new life all together. It's a bit overwhelming at exactly this minute and the logistics are dementing us, but I'm sure we'll muddle our way through.

A big thank you to everyone who has sent their best wishes and we will raise a glass to you on the day - or even on both days!



But you are warned........we will be back as soon as we can!

Let me be the first to congratulate you. We all wish you both well love opti. do i remember an invite for fellow h2g2ers too on the second event?

let me be the second. I like to think I played a tiny tiny part - oh happy days.


May the next time we meet be in a taverna by the sea

Much love and best wishes to you both - with heartfelt love

Thanks Spit - you brokered the deal and made it so!

We'll raise a glass and toast you.

Oh, and that meet up in Cyprus - we'll find you, we will! Thanks...

See you soon!

Cyprus eh? Will you be our first Researchers in that neck of the woods I wonder?
