Fibbing Friday 2nd July

Hello and welcome to Fibbing Friday where you’re given the chance to lie through your teeth and get away with it.
My turn to host this week as regular readers know I alternate with Frank, aka PCGuyIV https://pcguyiv.wordpress.com/

To join in, write a post with your answers to my 10 questions below and tag it “Fibbing Friday” or #FibbingFriday. Then link back to this post so that others can enjoy your answers and maybe join in as well! The more the merrier and some of the answers recently have been tremendously inventive!
If you use WordPress, pingbacks are enabled, so as long as you link to this post, it should show up.
Bear in mind though that they are usually approved manually, so don’t be surprised if the link doesn’t show immediately. You can also leave a link to your post in the comments.

Ignore the truth as you know it and make things up, though remember to keep things family friendly. Thanks!

Today would have been my 44^th wedding anniversary if I hadn’t married the wrong guy.
There’s no special symbol for 44 years of marriage, though 40^th is a ruby anniversary and sapphire is for 45.
My questions this week are sort of related to marital bliss…………. or not!
Have some fun with these and I’ll be back with my answers later.

2. What is a bottom drawer/Hope chest?
3. Why is it considered unlucky to wear green at a wedding?
4. Why is the chief bridesmaid referred to as a Matron of Honour?
5. What is the duty of the Best Man?
6. What is a Groom’s Cake?
7. How many tiers does a traditional wedding cake have?
8 Why are black cats considered a lucky token at weddings?
9 Why does the bride traditionally wear a veil over her face going up the aisle?

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! We have recently lost our beloved dog Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney, and now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of my GSD so had hers done too. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.
