Wine Legs Oct 2019 12:30pm, 7 Oct 2019 5,044 posts	Quote Pin Wine Legs People who can't get their own email address correct. We've had two wedding quotes in 24 hours, to a couple amusingly also called Wine Legs and Binks (OK, so their real names, but in order to protect our secret identities, I am not writing them here). The bride-to-be herself has now started forwarding stuff to us. At least I can reply to her and tell her to check her email address!! Silly wallies. Also £15k for a wedding for 140 guests. Blimey...

I’ve not managed to find a way of letting the opticians know the email address is wrong]
