    OTOTO event?
    Um, you said I should wear it, no?

    Or I'm quite happy to just make my hair whatever colour you'd like

    Or just show up like a normal person, even!

    :lol: I can vouch that normal Hinn, is actually as mad as mullet Hinn :D ...just without hat hair.

    Also, I have a question: The easiest (or only, since I'm arriving late) way to get to the hotel from el aeropuerto is by taxi, no? And are they readily available?
    If you're getting in the day before, then the official Midlands Taxi is open for bookings... if it's wedding day, you're boned and will have to lump it with the riff-raff down the taxi rank :P

    :lol: I'm arriving the day before, but pretty late (11-ish.. I should really check that :P ). If the Official Taxi needs beauty sleeps or drinks, I don't want to bother it. :)

    I had a dress dilemma over the weekend - the one I was going to wear is flippin' huuuge on me, so I've had to start from scratch. I've no doubt whatever dress I pick will still be black though :lol: I have maybe thought about doing a top and skirt combo either :shock:

    I'm about early on Thursday, feel free to lump me with tasks!

    Does a black shirt count? :P :mrgreen:

    ...and the suit decision is not an easy one... had to get Sian herself to come help me find an appropriate one... tis rather epic though :mrgreen: Just need to make sure I can still actually fit in it again before the day, bought it in May! :lol: :P
