It was trainers, shorts and a t-shirt for me, very poor show I know. 1
thegrogmonster Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 We got married in the registry office and then beers at Big Dogs at the entrance to Nana plaza. My mate still enjoys telling everyone that we had our wedding reception at Big Dogs. 29 years is a good effort. We have done 17 years. 1

I was with Beach Gal for over 12 years .. then married her .. she got pregnant and I am of the "old school" .... Pretty funny that day .. she is 9 months pregnant standing there in a wedding dress that has been modified to somehow fit her ... and no one said a word ... I think everyone was really happy we were finally getting married ..... I haven't looked back - one of the " good " decisions I have made in my life .....

Yea, anything can always work ... as long as you make your "boundaries" crystal clear and you never violate or allow another to violate ...... 1
