Hi all on the forum

heres one for you
http://www.------------/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.theboltonnews.co.uk%2Fnews%2Fboltonnews%2F8852357.Choose_the_happy_couple_to_have_their_dream_wedding%2F&h=1f463
my mrs says as i spend most of my time on here rather than talking about wires and sockets to post something worthwhile?;)

my partner and i have been planning to get married for most of the 14 yrs we been together to get married, we have been engaged for most of this time but with one thing and another it always gets put on the back burner

my eldest daughter suffers from dyslexia and learning difficulties and as a result is severly depressed

the other week she was on her laptop and decided she would enter us into a competition with the Bolton news and Bury Times for us to win a 11k dream wedding
she did this without our knowledge but as we were planning to make this the year we finally did it, we decided to play along thinking nothing would come of it and it would cheer her up

Then a letter arrived saying we had been selected to progress through to the last 30 couples and that we were invited to attend a informal interview at village hotel in bury, they sent a form for us to fill in some things about us as a couple so we went to the interview and then a few days later received another letter saying we had reached the final 15 couples
we will be in the bolton news tomorrow and the bury times on the 17th along with the other couples lol

if any of you would like to see me suffer or would kindly vote for us the couple with the most votes wins
you can vote by coupon out of the bolton news paper tomorrow the 14 th or the bury times on the 17th of feb
or i will post a telephone number and all the details tomorrow where if you would be so kind could vote by txt or phone for us to win
The winning couple will find out the result on the 6th of march at the Reebok staduim of of bolton wanderers football club, where we have to attend a bridal fayre the more votes the better
there are 25 prizes which make up the 11k win a dream wedding package

the 6 th of march is also the day 4 yrs ago 2007 when my father passed away
and also 3 yrs ago 2008 on the 6 th march my step dad passed away
in march last year i started the 2391 at bury college which i passed in june
and in march 2005 my partner went for a private operation which left her disabled and as a result i had to be her carer and we both no longer could work

i have been trying to get qualifications to finally after 24 yrs of giving up my apprenticeship to put it right what i messed up then at 16 i have worked in electrical installation on and off for the 24 yrs
i paid £4020 in 2009 for a private training course and the 2391 last year another £540 to set up self employed with no help from jobcentre or benefits system as they say i dont need to work and am exempt from looking for work, also there is no help with training or funding or finding work as i am a carer and not classed as unemployed i am now trying to get registerd with elecsa and register for the nvq2356 before it ends on the 31 st march at a cost of £900 more books etc
and all the cost of start up


so guys i will post all details tomorrow if you would consider voting for me to see me suffer hehe or just to see me get some better luck this 6 th of march then my partner and i would be ever so grateful and in all your debt lol:)

well all i have to say is;

A man in love is incomplete until he is married. Then he’s finished.

Marriage is give and take. You’d better give it to her or she’ll take it anyway.

You know what I did before I married? Anything I wanted to.

The husband who wants a happy marriage should learn to keep his mouth shut and his checkbook open.

The secret of a happy marriage remains a secret.

Marriage is a three ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring, and suffering.

I’ve had bad luck with both my wives. The first one left me and the second one didn’t.

Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight, dinner, soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays, I go Fridays

Bachelors know more about women than married men; if they didn’t, they’d be married too.

Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half-shut afterwards.

I never knew what real happiness was until I got married. And by then it was too late.

Marriage has no guarantees. If that’s what you’re looking for, go live with a car battery.

Marriage is a wonderful institution, but who wants to live in an institution?

After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin; they just can’t face each other, but still they stay together.
