I have never been so glad I trusted my gut and politely declined the enquiry to get involved with this.
Nothing against reality TV, give me a wee dose of Selling Sunset now and again - but I’m all about celebrating your relationship - and that is impossible to do if you have never met…..!

Channel 4 was aware of one of the r**e claims before broadcast, but the woman involved still featured in the show.

This is not me - but it’s a nice idea for next year….
🤣🤣🤣

The man sued his tour operator for allowing people to reserve sun loungers with towels despite a hotel ban on the practice.

So this bad boy high viz was rocked out again tonight (although I’m definitely more village people than “workie” in it!!)
Big shout out to M&S Crow Road who donated a full trolley of food, 9 crates of bread, cakes and pastries, and 3 trolleys of flowers!
£650 worth of flowers and probably £1000 worth of food all saved from landfill!
5 hostels - with somewhere in the region of 75 residents all got food - ready to eat, fresh, vegetables, pastries, and flowers!

Being at today reminded me that I hadn’t posted about Sam and Daniel’s absolutely AMAZING wedding day!

I knew there were some “new to Humanism” guests in the crowd but when I came back from seeing Sam before we started and the whole room was doing an impromptu singalong to Robbie Williams I knew I was in for a good day!!

These two pictures captured by one of the best in the business - the lanky photo ninja show what your ceremony really can be - howl til your sides hurt, cry with the joy of celebrating your love with your nearest and dearest - and I am 💯 in my conviction to NEVER doing homework. It is toooooo BORING, and I don’t want you to write for me, I don’t want to “paste” your content into a template - come to my house and TELL me your story - trust me, it will be worth it ❤️❤️❤️

This is such a big thing for me. Your wedding cannot be held hostage by anything that happens to me. Trust me, if I can’t make it, I’ll be bloody raging, but your wedding has to happen.
Only Humanist Society Scotland Ceremonies can make that promise.

OUR CEREMONY PROMISE ✨

During your wedding ceremony you'll make promises to each other. At Humanist Society Scotland we make one very important promise to you too!

Our Ceremony Promise gives you reassurance that if illness or unforeseen circumstances prevent your chosen celebrant from conducting your ceremony, we’ll arrange emergency cover from another Humanist Society Scotland celebrant. We have a network of over 130 celebrants across Scotland, all fully trained, insured and backed by Scotland's national humanist charity.

One less "what if?" to think about and a guarantee that your day will go ahead as planned. Pinky promise 😊

Yaaaaass!!

These are class, always a hoot hanging out with Dave Fallon Photography and I know I bang on about it - but trust me - doing “homework” (YAWN!!) does not let me get to know you well enough that I can make you laugh the way Ronnie is laughing in one of the ceremony shots…!

Don’t do homework. Come to my house, sit at my table and TALK to me ❤️❤️
