She said yes! -Well she was bound to wasn’t she?

[F5 Dave]

Just a quick update to anyone with a passing interest & thanks for helping me with the various thoughts running around my head over the whole idea of the inevitability of pair bonding, engagement rings & combining finances.

I took her to Port Douglas for a week & proposed on the beach under the moonlight. (Aww :love2: ) Decided not to give her the ring there & then, though I did suss out the one she wanted the week before. Turned out a good idea as we went to grab it yesterday & there were 2 more she took a fancy to. They were ½ & 1/3rd the price respectively. I waited with baited breath but of course she decided on the original , but at least I was prepared & I guess apathetic about the cost by then.

I’d like to thank my sponsors Hutt-Mana Elektrickery Trust for their valued contribution. (For non wgtnions they paid out a chunk to residents when they wound up).

how romantic congratulations

[F5 Dave]

Thanks guys, no I wasn’t really as nervous as I thought I’d be. We were both pretty tired but I suggested we should go for a walk on the beach, suspecting she’d say another time, but she said ok so I thought, phew! I guess this is it.

No I think it’s something in the electricity!

. . . . I hope the relationship carries on as it has started out.

Continues as it started out? Well we were friends (& only friends) for ~ 6 years & she wanted to leave Auckland so I said to come stay with me which she did for a year. She then decided or planned as women seem to that maybe we would work together. So she moved out & played her card. Oh I resisted at first, put up a hell of a fight , but eventually I relented.

Must be something in the Finlandia Vodka!
