I don't like to be judgemental
since I grew up in a 'common' household, 'leccy' on a meter, bored kids breaking into cars along the street, all that. But what mystifies me is the (chavvy) women who, upon hearing their boyfriend would like to marry them, decides they want a fairytale wedding. And not a fairly tasteful affair in a small church, I'm talking Barbie Fairy Princess.

It's not so much wanting a huge dress heavy enough to do your back in, but then wanting a tacky perspex coach to parade about in?

... I notice the only decent links were Daily Mail ones. Does that say something?

^ This.
On both counts, which is another reason I don't want to live with my parents. Can't stand the Daily Heil.

Hang on?!
The top one isn't even a woman. She was 16! Like hell I'd let my child marry so young. And I wouldn't be stupid enough to pay for it either.

Bad parenting.

Dresses like the one in the top link
are often travellers.

I say this without being anti-gypsy, this is a fact. When a girl from a travelling family gets married (often very young) the size and expense of the dress is seen as a matter of great pride to the family of the bride.

That perspex coach has grisly connotations.
I seem to remember that it (or one like it) was built for a dying child and then used as the hearse at her funeral.

Read about this in one of my mother's magazines. The ones she does the puzzles in before I get them, grr.

Betting?
Not a chance, the odds are overwhelming!
