from The Friday Five
1. Do you want to get married?
No. Been there, done that.
2. Where would you like to get married?
If I had to get married I would like it to be either in a forest glade or Wells Cathedral.
3. If you were getting married in a week, who would be in your wedding party?
My sons, my sisters, my brothers-in-law, my mother
4. What would your wedding colours be?
This is a bit like asking what my favourite colours are. For the record they're green and brown. But there would be no wedding colours, no colour theme. It would be come as you are.
5. Does marriage mean to you 'til death do us part?'
Good question. Since I'm divorced, obviously not. Historically marriage has hardly ever meant till death us do part; it's more often meant, 'till your husband decides he no longer wants you, but still wants to keep your property'. I'm not a big fan of marriage as an institution, and would never encourage my kids to get married - though I am all in favour of people throwing a huge party to celebrate their love. That's a great idea.
