    For reasons too dull to go into, I have today learnt a new word. Jactitation. It is an Offence Under English Law. Should a man or his wife boast of being married, they can be prosecuted for it.See Here[^]

    So, stop boasting you married Michelle. :)

    This is going on my arrogant assumptions. You may have a superb reason why I'm completely wrong. -- Iain Clarke

        Marriage is a three-ring circus: First the engagement ring, then the wedding ring ... ... then the suffering!

            I read it that A was boasting that he/she was married to B but B denied it. B therefore files suit so that it is known that B is not married to A.

                    great news :) I really need to pop around some time to catch up and see your new(ish) place. Do you have white kitchen walls you'd like to "decorate"? ;)

                          I feel that Wiki was appropriate for the panto theme of the rest of the message!
