Flats and maisonettes are both accommodation on one level.  The difference between them is that maisonettes each have their own front door leading out onto the street outside whereas flats all share the same main entrance/exit.  I house is accommodation with its own front door and two or three floors.  (I live in a first floor maisonette.)

Allsops is one of the countries biggest property auction houses and they tend to hold all their auctions in London.  If London is not essential then the list is endless! I would suggest looking at rightmove.co.uk for properties anywhere in the UK it is a very popular property portal - simple to use and has loads of property.

I think you mean "Porsche," not "poshe."\n\nThe difference between a porcupine and a Porsche is that with a porcupine the pricks are on the outside.

"Back in the day", street names were often just given based on where the road went.  If the road went to London, it was called London Road.  If the road was the main street in the town, it was called Main Street.\n\nNowadays, property developers normally include street name proposals in the plans they put forward to the local councils for approval and planning permission

The word is "trousseau" from French.  Throughout history, single young women all over the world have prepared for their change in marital status by accumulating a trousseau. A traditional trousseau -- stored in a hope chest -- included bridal accessories, jewelry, lingerie, toiletries and makeup, plus bed linens and bath towels for her new home. \n\nI hope this helps.

Its short for emotional hun. Its not guys who dress up in girls clothes. It does refer to the type of clothes they wear though. I can't describe it exactly and the type of music they listen to. Its just another group, like goths , pikeys and chavs

Probably middle english. Before the advent of the center fixed swinging rudder ( 14th C. ) rudders were attached externally to the rear , aft ( short for after ?), section of the vessel. \nThe Steerboard would preferably be on the side of the vessel not tied to a quay or pier.  The other side might be " port" if it is the adjacent side to where the vessel ties up. \nThat is just my guess. \nBow, I don't know.

High Street is just what we call the streets where our main shops are etc...To be honest when you live in the UK you don't really say 'I'm just going to the high street' or if someone phones you and asks where you are, you dont say 'I'm just on the high street!' \n\nTo be honest at first i though what is a high street as wel!! lol!!! and i have lived in the UK my whole life! But that is just coz we don't really say it in our everyday vocab! But anyways it generally is the street with all the shopping!

Hi there. A Horse & Carriage is a wonderfully romantic gesture, and I would in no way try to put you off heading down this route (it is also far from tacky in my opinion). That said, there are other options that can be just as grand and impressive on the transport front. \n\nI would advise that you try to ensure that whatever transport you pick, it sits well with any 'theme' for the day. You mentioned that it would be a small, relaxed event, so there is a danger that a Horse & Carriage could overpower the proceedings a little and there could well be more suitable vehicles that could make just as dramatic an impact. You may want to check out Weddingsday.co.uk. The site contains a whole host of articles on Wedding Transport (including ones that give you a good insight as to what alternatives are out there as well) and the one entitled 'Factors to Consider' should prove particularly useful to you and a link to it is attached. \n\nThe site also has tons of ideas for other ways to add that touch of romance to the day. You inferred that cash is tight, so you may want to think about less expensive ways to add flair to the proceedings - some of my favourites (and they may be of interest to you as well) are the 'Fabulous Freebies' mentioned in the Magical Honeymoon Memories article. I have included a link to that also for you. \n\nHope this helps and best of luck on the big day!

It usually means a small and sometimes inelegant dwelling, often a business.\n\nExample:  Did you see Smitty's new bar?  It's a regular hole in the wall!
