Congatulations. And, if I may be so bold, I wish you great happiness and success in your new life together.

As everyone, (Or almost everyone has requested) I hope there are pictures!
I'm trying to think of a gift for you two but... I guess a painting will have to do, that's my only physical talent. So, I guess the next question would have to be: Watercolours or Oils? Realistic or Abstract consepts? Or just a big beautiful fantasy piece? ~ Gift-giving Ka

That's wonderful news, Lal and Davem! I'm so happy for you both! Sorry I don't have a witty quotation handy, so I'll just say Congratulations and may your home be as solid as rock (as we here say to people who are about to get married).
Perhaps it's too early to say, but have you decided how you'll name your kids? Anything Elvish?

As far as the date goes, we're looking at December 13th (or the nearest available date to that) as that was the day we met.
Again, many, many thanks to everyone for all their good wishes. Hope to see as many of you as possible in Birmingham for the Conference, where we'll happily accept congratulatory drinks...... |

Ah me; wights in love! Now you can tell people that you found love after death! "We met in a barrow, and I instantly knew that she was the wight for me!"
"Will you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wight?" Okay, enough wight jokes. Congrats! You need to have a computer nearby when you get married so we can all send you PMs through the entire service. Just have rows and rows of computers in the audience, each one representing one of us.

Just got to say again, a big thank you for all the good wishes! *hugs all fellow 'Downers*
A webcam? I'd be terrified! You'd get some major line fluffing! It goes without saying that I am now thinking about outrageously opulent cloaks, as this gives me the perfect reason to get the cloak-to-end-all-cloaks.

Congratulations
You don't know me, but I've lurked here for years, Gollum-like, and I always enjoy reading your posts. I wanted to register just to offer my congratulations, and all that, though I intend to be a member in all senses of the term when I have a few spare minutes...
I hope your wedding goes perfectly. |

Cool. Sorry, I was left speechless. Congratulations! And yes, don't forget the pictures. EDIT: I was browsing through recent CbC threads and I realized that davem and Lalwendë need not combine their accounts to create a "super-BDer" -- they could just discuss or even debate about things before posting, pick up some ideas from each other...and they're on their way to Eru's right hand. A subtle plan for world...er...Downs domination, eh? Last edited by Lhunardawen; 03-17-2005 at 07:13 AM. Reason: ooooh... |

Again, thanks all! Just checking the rep tables (at the time of writing this) it seems that the dreaded Lalwendavem occupies the top two positions on the board!
Will SpM or Fordim come between us? |

Well, well, I haven't been here for a month of Sundays and look what I find! I'm so pleased for you Dave. Congratulations to you both. No doubt there will be some fine celebrating at the next Oxenmoot.

Thanks, Glad. Probably not OM this year - probably bankrupt ourselves at Birmingham. You should visit the Downs more often - the other place is dead Tolkien-wise, & it would be nice to hear from you.
Ask Lil, too. |

Yes very cool for both of you and what an interesting story you will have to tell your children. I can picture their bedtime stories at night.
Marriage is great! Going on our 6th year and 2nd child soon and I love it all so much.

CONGRATULATIONS!!
If I may, a little marital wisdom from one who has 11 years.... Before you are married, keep your eyes wide open; After, keep them half shut. And respect each other, you can't love someone if you don't respect them.
