Questioning if marking is worth it

Edexcel maths this year and I have enjoyed doing it previously, but I dread to work out my hourly rate because it's so time consuming.

Average Speed Camera and Limits between

Drove on the A47 for the first time in ages and noticed the number of average speed cameras on the way. Had a google of how long they'd been up and found the map from National Highways, and got curious after seeing this, surely the ones either side of the 40mph zone (short yellow stretch) should actually be set at a touch above 40 rather than 50?

Printing for Wedding

We've looked at various online places but feel we just need to speak to a human being in the city to explain what we want. Any recommendation for printers that can do table names, folded place cards for names, orders of service etc?

18 months on and I am still broken

I miss her so much. She was just the most perfect little cat, she was just so full of love after the first 10 years of her life were full of abuse and failed adoptions. We got her when she was well past middle age but we made sure her final 5 years were the best they could possibly be.

It is the worst pain ever. I have lost relatives and loved ones. But none of them have left me doubled over and sobbing after so long has passed. I love her and I miss her and I am just so bereft that I am not with her.

We're getting married next month and she was meant to be there. Some of her ashes are in our rings so we can always have her nearby now, but it's not her.

Tequila Miniatures

Such a random one, does anyone know an off licence/newsagent that does these? Not rose. I've tried a lot already.

It's for a very specific thing but none seem to have any! Amazon have some but minimum order is 5

At our wedding of ~110, we're planning on having a 2 tier cake plus cupcakes in order to 1. Bulk out the table and make it look more visually striking 2. Easily cater for dietary requirements.

How much cake did you allow per guest? We are going to have some takeaway cardboard containers so guests can take some with them, plus we would like to do the traditional freezing some for our anniversary. It's a fairly highly staffed venue so will likely want/be able to give away a fair bit to staff plus our suppliers but I don't want it to be ridiculous leftovers.

I've attached the cutting guide our baker recommends we follow, and it will be a 10 inch (she thinks about 56-60 portions on that) and an 8 inch. That's approx 92 (larger) portions so we're slightly torn on how many cupcakes to go for!!
