What brings us together?



Yep, Joe and I are engaged! No, we don't know where or when the wedding will be...yes, Grant I knew when i came through Melbourne....no, I couldn't tell you because Zac and Liz didn't know yet so yes, you will have to forgive me :)

Congratulations, Kate. Even though I haven't met him, he doesn't deserve you. You might need two weddings - one here and one wherever this so-called "Joe" comes from. I will, of course, attend both. I'm currently working on my speech.
It was terrific to catch up with you in Melbourne and best of luck with the new arrangement. When the dust settles, I'm sure we'd all like to hear how he proposed...

Well done Kate from the Lismore Roffs!! That's very exciting! We are really happy for you.

I suppose everyone now feels foolish for giving 'wandering hands Joe' a hard time now that we know his intentions have always been honorable..

Don't get too carried away there, Daniel.

It's been a long week waiting for you to go public Kate! Great news and congratulations to you and Joe. I'm looking forward to more details soon.

Congratulations also to Harry for being the first to turn this into some sort of competition - a true Roff. Who put their money on Kate in the "who'll be the next Roff to get married competition ".

Congratulations Kate, from all Seage's, from afar and not so far. Who are you nominating as the "Wilson Tuckey" uncle for the wedding? Wait, Wilson's your local member in Gero, perhaps he's on the invite list.

Sorry, Grant. Congratulations, Kate and Joe.

Best wishes, Kate, we know you and what's his name will be very happy. I have restrained myself from saying "congratulations" to you because of a vague memory of a Grandma Eileen Roff comment many years ago which went along the lines of; "You congratulate the man because he has achieved or won something wonderful: you wish the engaged girl the best of luck because she.....(memory loss from me at this point)" Mum was very insistent that you should not "congratulate" the potential bride because it indicated that she may have actually gone out to "get" this poor target and has succeeded! Now, I don't really know this "Joe No-Hands", but do we "congratulate" Kate or "best wishes"? Perhaps other Roffs (or Seages/Forrests) have had similar advice and can shed some more light on this delicate issue. Whatever, Kate, we love you and wish you and Joe a great life together. S & M

Hey, Stu and Marianne - any chance of you changing your initials from "S&M"? Your posts keep triggering my porn filter...

Hardiest Congrats from Armidale Roffs

Jake said...

I'm pretty sure I had money on Kate being the next to marry. Who was it that was taking money at 3 in the morning last christmas..?

Andrew said...

Way to go, Kate!

At Christmas I predicted that the next cousin weddings would be Kate, followed shortly thereafter by Dom. So far I'm 1 from 2. Go Dom!!

Now Nome, I think Tom has been to enough weddings.... anyway I put my money on Adam and Mon. It was a safe bet at the time. Come on ad.... do your duty mate.

Harry.
