Howie...snap, lol i have just looked up my wedding date and added a thread, lol As a side note, as a child i lived opposite a very big and popular church and in the summer there were often 2 or 3 weddings on a Saturday, my Dad used to open the windows and play Connie Frances' - Who's Sorry Now? at full volume, the Vicar used to find it funny....not so sure about the wedding guests though!

just looked this up and found winifred atwell - lets have another party! yeah this sums me up. although i have never heard of this song or singer. mum says i was named after 'the story of tina' which was popular in 1954 sung by al martino. it was either this or gina because my dad fancied gina lolobridgida (spelling?). not sure which i prefer. tina x |

Yes, perfect Polly Anna For 1946 - Annie get your Gun, suitable for any time of year, or you can have that lovely song Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire but you'll have to save that one until wintertime! Cherryx |
