Bad Weddings

[That Jekka Gal]

A distant relative of my OH but I reluctantly agreed to go along with the thought of copious amounts of bubbly on tap to relieve the tedium.

Anyway, the bride was an hour late, the ceremony went on for 2 hours & when we were finally ushered in to the reception, I was told that the bar wasn't going to open for another hour. So, you can imagine my relief when I finally got to the front of the queue and was in a postion to order a drink.

The relief was very short lived, however, as the barman informed me only non alcoholic drinks were on offer as they were all evangelical types.

Wish I'd been forewarned - I might have prepared a hip flask or 3!

Anyway, the lack of booze didn't stop my OH's uncle's usual party trick of approaching the top table and getting his banjo out.

Excruciating.

Cool story.

 

[Diddums]

You done pretending to be a woman yet?

 

[Monkeynut]

Excruciating.

The one true component.

Forewarned about what?

I'd always take a hip flask or three.

Last wedding we went to we were staying at the venue, we bought one drink at the bar which was holy **** expensive, but a quick nip in to my room every now and then, and my glass kept magically topping itself up

If you fail to plan prepare to fail.

You've learnt that one now though.

Also lol at getting his banjo out, I'm guessing you meant an actual musical instrument though.

Getting his what out now?

What kind of weddings do you go to...?

I hope the uncle didn't snap his banjo string when he got it out

Ah yes, I've just realised how that may have read
