I get what you mean, hopefully you can both come to an agreement on what your "duties" should be so you can still be best man but not have to do much idk

I done turned 'er head into a slug an' now she's a-stucked!
An ice cream van right outside my flat is blasting 'Is This The Way To Amarillo' so loud that it's distorting over the speakers. Also the whippy machine is churning away at 50000 goddamn decibels. gently caress off.

(I'm grumpy because I'm denying myself sweets and could really go for an ice cream right now)

How much does pat sharp cost to book? Wanna go go-karting with him, maybe book the twins to cheer me on. It'll be great

The twins do party bookings though they're not great at replying on twitter (that or they thought I was taking the piss when I asked if they were able to sign my copy of their debut album or not)

share best man duties. my brother had dad as his "best man", and clearly he didn't arrange the stag etc.

at another wedding, my mate also had two best men who ~shared the load~.

you can do the remote stuff, your friend's other friends can pick up the "actually here" stuff

I was my brother's best man and all I did was give a (bad, drunk) speech. We're pretty chill though, some people are probably a bit more formal about it.

I hold myself firmly responsible for killing Barry Chuckle because a couple of years ago I thought to myself 'I wonder if the chuckle brothers made it through 2016 unscathed' and checked and they were both alive and then I woke up the next day to news he'd snuffed it

You only need to roll-up, deliver the speech, and then get off with his mum as she fawns over you for travelling round the world for it.

Let a banter-lad organise the stag.

It was okay, I was in the goldfish bowl (the bureau, it's secure with a parcel hatch and locking doors either side and lots of glass) and it was actually not too busy unlike the last 3 months.

I can cope, and it was really nice seeing my coworkers again. Actual human interaction makes up for a lot.

Interested in hearing any serious counter argument to this. Chuck the gravy in a chocolate fountain.

Hello, dear
Did Melanie and Mawteenuh ever get work after Funhouse?

Apparently they released an album in 1999. Keep On Pumping was released as a single. This is news to me

There's a song on it called Influence My Body :spooky:

Didn't they do this on Emmerdale for a Single wedding? They had a gravy fountain with either roast potatoes or Yorkshire puddings on sticks to dip into it.

Genius idea imo
