believes this as her pal in London sent it in an e-mail!!:biggrin:

Would be quite cool if it was but another urban myth one thinks



My mates wife has just come back from work and told him this about one of her colleagues.

She has Alton Towers booked for her Wedding and she got a call from them asking if she minded moving her wedding from the Saturday to the Sunday.

No, all the arrangements have been made, invitations out and we have people flying in from around the world, how dare you, NO

They phone back, if you do we will pay for half your wedding.

No, leave me alone

They phone back, if you do we will pay for all your wedding

No

They phone back, if you do we will pay for all your wedding and the honeymoon (I think I would have caved in about here)

No

They phone back, if you do we will pay for all your wedding and the honeymoon, plus the get over the inconvenience of your guests coming in from around the world we will pay for their flights and their accomdation.

No, this is my wedding and I want it on that Saturday

They phone back, how much is your mortgage, why do you need to know that? Hwo much is it, so she tells them £180,000. Ok thanks

They phone back, on top of what we have offered you we will pay off your mortgage as well.

Finally she says YES.

Three days later a Coutts bank cheque arrives for £250,000 signed by David Beckham who wants to hire out Alton Towers for that day and that day only, do whatever you need to do to get me it all to myself and it only cost him two weeks wages.

Urban myth, I'm afraid. I first heard that three years ago about the penthouse suite at the new Hilton in Manchester and it was a soldier in Iraq who'd been dreaming of staying there with his girlfriend on his return. Beckham was supposed to have wanted the suite when he came over for Gary Infected Dog's Anus Neville's wedding.

The Beckhams once looked over a house they were considering buying on the outskirts of Manchester that a friend of mines brother now owns. It's a converted water tower, the top floor has 360 windows so you can see for miles in every direction.

Thats a lotta windows

I looked for a picture on the net but couldn't find one. I didn't like the look of it actually. Sure, the top room would've been amazing but you had to go up and down stairs all the time. It was about five floors or something.
