    Bloody nerve! I’d go ahead with the wedding, keep the presents, and marry the best man!

    I don’t think John is getting another chance, unless his fiancée is equally keen on football 😂😂😂😂

    Yep, that’s the best suicide note I’ve read in a long time.

    So he ditches his wedding and leaves all the mess for her to clean up? Yeah, no. Buh-bye forever, John. What a putz!

    Dear Keith,

    Love u lots????. I think he needs to have his butt kicked across the football field. Nope, not good husband material. She should take a girlfriend on the honeymoon trip and leave John in the dust.

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

    Years ago my husband and I had sent the wedding gift and were looking forward to the big party on Friday night. Thursday afternoon the hubby got a call at work saying the wedding was off. The couple eventually married, minus the party. We never did know what happened.

    A hilarious twist on the (Dear) John letter. I’m sure after she has a wing-ding fit she’ll thank him for not being her husband. I can only imagine what being married to a prince like him would be like…

    Oh, there’s gonna be a bloody wedding – without you, John! While you been out at the pub watching footie, I been busy playing footsie with your best mate, Colin. His feet are warm and much bigger than yours so while you’re freezing your arse off at the game, Col and I will be like one big toasted cheese butty in our bed in Tuscany tomorrow. Bugger off, then, you stupid wanker. Did I mention Colin’s feet are bigger? Yeah, I’m chuffed! Your ex, Sally 😁

    Say what? I DO NOT like this man one little bit! Luckily, he let her know ~ maybe unknowingly ~ what a jerk he is. Well done.

    😳😂 I think those will be his last words to Sally. Hopefully the game gives him a lifetime of happiness. 🥴

    Someone is starting off on the very wrong foot. Hopefully, she is understanding.

    Here lies the idiot formerly known as John X. They say he was dedicated. Sally said not.
    Another fun one, Keith.

    Oh no! Poor Sally and in the end poor John. I have a feeling the response he gets is not the one he expects. So creative!

    Enjoying the viewpoints in the comments almost as much as the wedding fiasco, lol. Hope Sally had a fabulous time at her ‘goodbye John’ party and took her best friend on a fabulous trip! 💞

    I’ve not written for a couple of weeks now…I’ve been finishing a big crochet project for my daughter’s birthday in 2 weeks. I’m starting to get writer’s withdrawal!
