Guest at Highlands wedding travelled 16 hours to be asked to leave
The wedding guest, who travelled 16 hours to attend her friend's big day, was left "mortified" after being asked to leave. A woman who travelled 16 hours to attend a friend's Scottish wedding was left gobsmacked when she was asked to leave post-ceremony. The guest was buzzing in anticipation of the event, which was being hosted by her workmate. However, her elation turned to humiliation when she was unceremoniously told to exit following the ceremony. Writing on Reddit, she said: "I was absolutely mortified." She had relished the beautiful ceremony alongside another colleague, eagerly awaiting the chance to snap photos with the bride and settle in for the wedding breakfast. But upon arrival at the reception, she was met with bewilderment as her name was absent from the seating plan. She continued: "We get to the venue and like everyone else are checking the table plan for our seats, and still checking, but can't find our names. The Master of Ceremonies comes over and asks to see our invites. He flatly states we were only invited to the church and evening drinks and that we need to leave. It was in tiny small print that our invite wasn't for the meal." Following the mortifying mix-up, the wedding attendee and her mate promptly "slipped away". She continued: "Neither my colleague nor I had realised we weren't included in the whole event and the bride later let it slip she only invited people from the office because our boss had told her it was the polite thing to do. We had thought we were friends with her." Still dressed to the nines, the duo opted to hunt down a nearby café in the Highlands to kill some time for the following five hours, while the remaining guests celebrated. The Reddit poster continued: "We found a local greasy spoon and have a bacon roll and tea, then decide to go back to the bed and breakfast to freshen up. The lady was furious and tried to feed us up bless her. She then drove us back to the evening ceremony at 7pm. "By this point everyone at the venue was sloppy drunk as they'd been drinking for five hours, and we find out we were the only ' evening guests '." The pair attempted to have a good time but departed the wedding at 10pm. She remarked: "We got a lift from a kind local and went to a local bar where we were entertained by more locals who had heard of our fate from the BandB owner. "We had the breakfast of gods the next morning and were told if we ever go back to be assured that is not how the local people treat their guests. We had ended up having a fun night because of the locals. They really did save the day in more ways than one." The guest said she now gleaned a lesson from her ordeal, adding: "I now scrutinise wedding invites and if I'm only invited to the evening part that's cool but at least I'm informed." However, she did get her own back. She elaborated: "We had put £50 each in the card envelope and chipped in for a beautiful bedding set on her registry at Debenhams so our gifts were worth £100 each. We took the money out of the card and just gave her the bedding." The wedding blunder sparked hundreds of comments from Reddit users. One person opined: "It is just rude to invite a person to the morning and the evening part but not the eating part. Either you invite them to all or only evening. This grinds my gears!". Another chimed in: "My cousin did that. We still talk about how inconsiderate it was years later, so much that when my fiancé and I decided on an afternoon ceremony, that was one of the reasons." "Well that is really rude," another said.

The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers: Can Ridge handle Brooke and Nick's spark without letting Taylor see the truth?
The June 20 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful will take us right back into familiar territory: Taylor and Brooke are at odds again. The subject? Ridge—and now Nick. These two women rarely see eye to eye, and with both Ridge and Nick stirring emotions, it's clear their disagreement is about to hit a boiling point. While Taylor wants to move forward with Ridge, Brooke seems unable to let go of the idea that Ridge is still her destiny. As the tension between the two women builds, it becomes clear that their past—and perhaps unresolved feelings—continue to influence every decision they make. Brooke feels the magic again Previously, Nick's unexpected return to Los Angeles brought more than just nostalgia. The moment he saw Brooke, he kissed her—an act that reignited something in both of them. The kiss was spontaneous, but definitely stirred something within Brooke. It was enough for her to open up to Katie and admit not just that Nick kissed her, but that it meant something. THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: The Whereabouts of Brooke and Nick's son, Jack Marone, is Revealed - @JackWagnerhpk @KatherineKellyL @BandB_CBS #JackMaroneThe mystery to "Where's Jack?" is answered! Now it's time to cast him in the future😀Your picks? 👉 Nick seems determined to help Brooke break free from her long-standing connection with Ridge. Whether he succeeds or not, the chemistry between them can't be ignored—and Brooke is clearly feeling the shift. Ridge, Nick and the brewing tension Meanwhile, Ridge is not pleased about Nick's return. He's made it clear to Taylor—and even to Eric—that he's committed to her now. But his reaction to Nick being around Brooke says otherwise. Taylor sees the cracks too. Though she should be glad Brooke has someone else to focus on, she's frustrated that Nick's presence still gets under Ridge's skin. If Ridge is truly with Taylor, why does he care so much about who Brooke is kissing? That question might just unravel sparks, fresh tensions, and jealous hearts—The Bold and the Beautiful is turning up the heat with every twist.

Escape to the Country buyers reject properties as they make huge discovery
Escape to the Country buyers reject properties as they make huge discovery Escape to the Country saw host Sonali Shah help buyers Marcus and Nicola, who were looking to relocate to the countryside Escape to the Country: Property hunters make realisation Escape to the Country graced our screens once more with a fresh episode on Tuesday (29 April), featuring Sonali Shah as she journeyed to North Yorkshire to assist a couple in their quest for a new home. Marcus and Nicola, looking to leave Halifax behind for a rural retreat after their two eldest children had flown the nest, were the focus of this search. With £850,000 at their disposal, the couple was looking for a property with three bedrooms, an office space, a minimum of half an acre of land, and the possibility of setting up a holiday let venture. Sonali had a trio of potential dwellings lined up for Nicola and Marcus, who planned to make the move with their 10-year-old son, Mason. Marcus and Nicola on Escape to the Country (Image: BBC ) Death in Paradise fans beg for character return as show delivers huge announcement READ MORE: The first option was a standalone contemporary house in Middleton Tyas, priced at £810,000. This property featured three reception areas, four bedrooms, half an acre of land, and the capacity for a holiday let enterprise, reports Yorkshire Live. Article continues below Initially, the couple was taken aback by the "grand" aspects of the house, but Nicola's enthusiasm waned when they considered the maintenance the numerous rooms would require, confessing her "heart sank" at the thought. Following that was a visit to an 18th-century farmhouse in Seamer, which came with a bonus: an already thriving BandB operation in the form of a two-bedroom holiday cottage. Positioned near the seaside and encompassed by six acres of land, this property was listed at £700,000. This second home met many of Nicola and Marcus's criteria, prompting them to start brainstorming renovation ideas and evaluating its business prospects. The third and final property showcased was in Harwood Dale, boasting a price tag of £795,000. This 16th-century gem offered a two-bedroom main house complemented by two separate one-bedroom holiday cottages, all set within a sprawling 10-acre estate. Sonali Shah on Escape to the Country Sonali reached out to Marcus and Nicola later on to see if they had put forward any offers and to hear their impressions of the three properties they were shown. Nicola confessed she was having second thoughts about rural living, especially considering the impact on their son, Mason, who might be cut off from his mates. "I think I've learned that it's not in the Moors I need, it's near to the Moors. I don't want Mason to be isolated, I think I'm happy with that, but I just don't want to take his friendship groups away," she shared candidly. The couple disclosed to Sonali that they had ruled out the first and third properties, leaving only the second as a potential fit for their family's requirements. Article continues below Although they planned a follow-up viewing, Sonali disclosed in the episode's conclusion that Marcus and Nicola had ultimately discovered their ideal four-bedroom family home, separate from their journey on Escape to the Country. Escape to the Country airs on weekdays on BBC One at 3pm
