About the
Bride

Would you say that she is able to laugh at herself?
Please provide us with a short summary of her background (e.g.
Shelley was schooled in Leicester, did A levels, and then went to University of
Birmingham in 1992. Qualified as a secondary school teacher, and then took up
her first job at a school in Birmingham. Unfortunately, she missed home so much
that she soon returned to Leicester, and took up a new role at Lovely Lane High
School. And it’s a good job that she did, for that is where she met me!
Shelley’s hobbies include girls nights out with her friends, badminton, and
taking cookery lessons at the local College. From what Shelley’s parents tell
me, I think I’d better do the cooking! I’m also reliably informed that
Shelley is none too keen on spiders. She also loves dogs, and loves nothing
more than walking Ben, her Golden Labrador, around the local park – except, of
course, when its raining. Apart from spiders, her pet hates include computers, football, and the
comedian Harry Hill, and her ambition is to see the world before she’s
thirty.)
