I must admit i have a sick sence of humour and i really had a good laugh with your BOGOF offer earlier in the day. I'm sat here thinking what other name I would use other than my own. |

Talking of BOGOFs our son was baptised at the same time as we were married. One of the reasons was that we had such a massive buffet laid on it would be a massive expense to do it all again. Another reason was that seeing as how people were coming such long distances we didn't want to make them have to travel twice. So yes, a BOGOF might have been a reasonable assumption !! |

Hmm... well LD I can't imagine anyone lying about 42, if you were older then you'd say you were younger than 42 for sure. Well I would lol. Point in case, my grandad who was at least 44 became 38 on his marriage cert...incidently he may actually have been 57, and therefore could have said 42 but chose to go with 38. |

lmao LD. One in my family did that... well I thought they were my family until Monday when the certs arrived and I found out they weren't but you get the point. I would have laughed at it if it was ancestors... not so funny if it's recent but how can you be offended if it was over 100years ago |

totally agree its unacceptable. this hobby is supposed to be fun and shouldn't be ruined by people like that. i'm sure it was meant to lighten the mood anyway. |
