Daughter's Prom. Thank You

[hammerman]

Thank you again to all those who responded.

I've spoken to my parents and they were fine. We've looked up the small print and we only lose a £200 deposit for the holiday....but my parents gain the fact that they don't have to pay £900 for her to go !!!!

I will pay £100, and my daughter will pay the other £100.

With regards to the prom itself....yes it's Americanised crap, but to an excited 15/16 year old, it's the best day of their lives...the dress shopping, the shoe shopping, the discussions about who goes into which limo with who, the make up, the hair styles, the jewelry, the fingernail art....believe me, this is damn important to a youngster.

Ive had to trawl through dress after dress after dress on the internet....but do you know what, i don't care and i'm hopefully going to make this the best day of her young life so far.

Thanks again

I'm so glad you sorted it out, well done.

[Sqad]

A satisfactory and predictable outcome.

[DaisyNonna]

Great to be part of an understanding family who work together.

What a relief! I'm really glad it's sorted and your parents understood. My oldest three have all had proms and they loved the build-up and excitement- and the actual night. My first thought was that it was a bit American, but it's important to them. I hope she enjoys it xx

Thank gawd for that then, well done with getting that sorted, hammerman.

So....not only the Prom....which will be so memorable...but a Dad who enjoys being a part of his girls' life!

Fantastic!!! Wish her a wonderful evening....GX

Oh, that's good news. It might not be, the be all and end all to our older Abers but it is the lead up to it and the memories to be shared with her friends I was thinking about.

[hammerman]

Gness....she my absolute world mate. Don't get me wrong, if she deserves a bo****king, she'll get one but she's generally a good kid who's doing well at school and just got into college doing travel and tourism....and im dead proud of her.

Thanks to you all again.

[gness]

That was obvious, Hammerman.....my daughter had a dad like you.... I wish I had.......

I would love to see your face when she sets off on her big night...no dry eyes I'll bet!....☺

[tonyav]

Don't forget to get the stretched limo sorted, hammerman.

[DaisyNonna]

Now you are going to have to keep us up to date with details! Dress etc.

[woofgang]
