That sounds like my elderly aunt telling me gossip and trying to get me to remember who someone is. "He's the son of Yer wan who was married to herself, who was the daughter of that woman who was married to Rosie's son".

no, they excluded same sex marriage in the line before the bit i quoted.

SexOne party to a marriage must be male and the other female

Thoie · 14-12-2010 07:35PM

I'd have presumed you couldn't marry your husband/wife's anything, as you'd already have a spouse. If you're divorced or widowed, then they're not your husband anymore surely? Similarly with your aunt's uncle's cat's owner's husband - if he's a husband he must be already married.

Or are they saying that if my aunt got divorced I couldn't marry her ex-husband?

Law says:

- totally unrelated by blood mother in law is bad
- your mothers sisters daughter that shares the same grandfather and genes as you - good

I wonder has anyone ever looked at the list and went
"eh on second thoughts I dont think I'll bother"

If this is a church jobby you might also want to crack on with booking the pre marriage course, can be a bit of a waiting list and the priest was quite insistant on getting it done

Well, im assuming you cant marry anyone else if you are already married. Tbh, im no too sure either.- So when we were in the reg office today I just looked at my missus and asked her who her mother and father was - they were not the same as mine - so we continued

TBH the safe pass is cheaper and you get more out of it, (at least you would know how to dispose of her properly when the time comes....;))

What larks there'll be when her mother sits on one side of the aisle and her father on the other come the big day. You are getting married in a supermarket, right?

It would cause some pandemonium if you pinned that list up down at the camp site.
