Can we ask for your advice please?
We've just opened a letter from a production company called Monkey Kingdom, who are making a new documentary for channel 4 about weddings. They're asking if we'd be interested in taking part, as "Gretna Green is the most iconic wedding location in the UK."

"Monkey Kingdom" makes me think of Bert, ergo that's a good omen. The company's address is, "3rd Floor Biscuit Building", which makes me think of Mrs Bin and her biscuits.

Should we enquire?

DG is having a Best Woman and I'm hoping to have our very own Pooflake as my Bridesman....

Also, I'm planning to bake CDC biscuits, iced magenta, to decorate the table instead of sugared almonds.

Can we have some goose-stepping Ginger bread Fuhrers too?

Go for it, what's the worst that could happen?

The whole world could find out what sick senses of humour you have? BIG DEAL.

Bert
That's my only concern - every other word uttered from me would have to be bleeped, therefore not worth showing ;o)

*licks Bert's face*

Do they pay you for this?
Coz if so, you no longer have an excuse for skipping the York bash :-)

"3rd Floor Biscuit Building", which makes me think of Mrs Bin and her biscuits.

Not to mention the '3' makes me think of 'b3ta'.

But seriously, you should take part, as I'm sure a b3ta wedding would be a novelty, not to mention a hoot. Is it the day before the Edinburgh bash? You should invite plenty of b3tans to the wedding/reception.

All the best, and may you spend more time fucking in the cunt than cunting in the fuck.

It's on the 8th
And so a couple of days before the bash. And in keeping with the unconventional nature, the actual reception will be 8 days later...

Not sure about being paid - I'd assume so, but I guess we need to contact them.

Thank you Spak
for the beautiful sentiment :o)

And you're right about the 3 - how could I miss that!?

My thoughts
Find out just what they are after first, but if all of that sounds ok then go for it.

They'll be discreet
Apparently.

I don't know. If they pay, why not?

My cousin is on this series of 'It's not easy being green' apparently. I keep forgetting to watch it though.

If you go for it
Try and grab their interest (your wedding sounds like it will do this!)

And whatever they offer, um and ah a bit and ask for more. They'll start at a lower amount than they're prepared to pay.

Cool
Thanks for the advice Sam. I have a credit card bill that needs paying off...

Go for it!
Anything you can get for free, I say grab it! Incidentally, see if you can get cameras at the reception. That would be brilliant. Incidentally, is Legless coming to the wedding?

Hurrah I got thought of
Hmm, If they are paying and they won't get in the way then why not.
