And - we're back to normality.
My mother has been gushing on and on about this wedding since they returned home. She has had photos out, scoped out the website to relay all the little details (more than once), and even talked pricing (an obscene amount)... which is about when she mentioned Civil Partnerships.
Obviously one should never say never and all that jazz, and if I meet the right person then who knows, but I have never been the girl who dreams about a wedding day. Judging from her teary-eyed expression, I guess my mother still holds onto the dream for me. One thing is for sure, if it did happen, a lavish affair is not my style.
My little brother quickly reverted to his usual ‘grouchy teenager’ personality and told her to “Shut up about it, we don’t care”. He has the same minimal knack for tact as his father does.
