More Wedding List-Related Musing

Of course, one of the great wedding-related joys we have yet to tackle is that other list. Not of attendees, but of gifts. Wey hey!

We've checked-out a few Web sites and made a single, if aborted, exploratory expedition to Tottenham Court Road.

This was cut short as my pathological aversion to shopping on Saturday afternoon's flared spectacularly and caused us to retire to a public house for libation and succor.

But looking around our drafty little home -- I'm constantly reminded there's so much to do and so many things we need.

The wedding is the ideal catalyst to bring improvement and luxury to our humble lives. After all, that's the point of it -- to help the newly-wedded couple set-up their first home together. The fact that we have Eames chairs, a Le Corbusier chaise lounge and B&O TV is neither here nor there. We need *more* tasteful luxury items, and I simply cannot function at this desk for much longer unless I can park my behind on another chair specifically designed for the purpose by the aforementioned Mr. Charles Eames.

So folks, after careful and diligent research, lengthy consideration and hours of Googling -- our list will be at Heals (http://www.heals.co.uk). Don't worry, Heals carries quite a lot of less-expensive items, though they may not appear on our list ;-)

This revelation has made me revise my contribution to the invitation list, and instead of sending my sack-load of invites by standard post, I shall be Fed-Ex-ing to ensure accurate and timely delivery.
