General Chat Thread (PLEASE READ POST #1)

Toots · 2015-01-29 12:39:39

Hi folks! Myself and iguana thought it would be a good idea to start a general chat thread in the forum. There can often be a lot of chat on threads, which can sometimes send things off on a bit of a tangent away from the topic of the thread. This isn't a bad thing, but often if someone's posted looking for advice it can…

Poor Prince Harry is having a bit of bother with his future in laws!

Has anyone the link to the epic thread where there was an absolutely mental bridezilla? It's a huge thread, I just can't find it!

You're going to have to narrow that down - there's been a few!

Did anyone see yesterday's royal wedding?
I was at work, so only saw photos and a few clips.
I loved Eugenie's dress. Much better than Megan's I thought.
Also, there seemed to he genuine emotion which was missing from the last royal wedding.

I loooooved her dress, it was beautiful. And that tiara - my god it was fabulous. Also watching them try to pile her dress into the car afterwards was hilarious.

I didn't like the dress at all, not to my taste.

Loved the dress. And glad she suited herself and didn't have a veil.

She looked beautiful. The back of the dress was fabulous. Thought the sleeves were a bit too loose but she really did look great. I thought her sister’s dress was awful. It reminded me of something an older, very traditional mother of the bride would wear. Not a 30 year old!

I liked her head piece.
Her outfit wasn't unlike Kate Middleton's in style, but the latter carried the look off so much better.

I loved all the bird cage fascinators.

I thought Beatrice looked beautiful. Her dress wasn't my style but was lovely all the same. I loved Eugenie's. That old vintage look is gorgeous. I was having a look at celebrity weddings over the weekend and came across Gwyneth Paltrow's wedding. Her dress was amazing and very close to what I'll be looking for. *Here's a pic

*Or not!

Hi, not sure where to post this.

Does anyone know if you change your name when you get married, do you have to apply for a totally new passport (i.e: pay the 75 euro and get new pictures etc for a whole new document) or can you just request an amended passport for a lesser fee?

I've tried to look this up online and been caught in a cycle of being re-directed to about 100 different websites on citizens information!

It’s 10 years since I got married but I know at that time if you wanted your married name then you had to order a new passport for full price.
