	Clive  +  424630 Fri, 28 Sep 07 05:39 AM Hi, Can I say, (A) We went to the jewellery shop to buy some jewellery for my cousin for her marriage      as her presents. It's very ugly and awkward English to have so many phrases following after one another like this. I suggest this. We went to the jewellery shop to buy some for my cousin as a wedding present.
