Thanks for your input on the watch issue, but with one for and one against it looks like I'm going to have to decide for myself! The fact is that I have lots of things that Rina bought me. I'm still wearing the t-shirts she bought. She bought my wall clock. And I'm not getting rid of that because I love it! I don't think the watch really has any effect on the frequency of my thoughts of her. And thinking of her is often not a bad thing. I'd rather keep the money for a new laptop-I-don't-need than spend it on a new watch-I-don't-need.

The wedding went alright. The service was nice. Quite short and to the point. Mum kept saying things like "this will be you one day". She has no idea that comments like that are not really amusing. And are actually quite painful. Then we went to a restaurant for the meal, which was pretty good. Unfortunately I was sat next to a woman who was so horrified at the idea that I might try to talk to her that she literally turned her back to me. It's no wonder I'm a social wreck - I obviously give off some kind of please-pretend-I-don't-exist pheromone.

The reception venue was nice and it was a good few hours before I started to feel crappy. I started to wish I was a smoker so I would have an excuse to go outside and spend some time on my own. I solved this problem by going outside to chat with my brother, who is a smoker. We had a good talk. Talked about an old friend. Covered some subject matter that we should have talked about years ago. And once all the woman had drunk too much and were spilling red wine and ripping expensive dresses, we went to our hotel for some kip.
