Just got back from my cousin Sian's wedding. Lovely affair. They'd booked a big, country mansion with its own tiny little chapel out in the grounds. Absolutely beautiful. The place was stuffed to the gills with friends and relations but we were only in there for an hour or so and it didn't get too stuffy. Then we all went out into the grounds where ( Read more... )

The Harry Potter section on this article from Cracked about different heroes and how they'd deal with a Zombie Apocalypse is pretty hilarious... Then again so is the Dirk Diggler section... And the Baby section.http://www.cracked.
