THANKS!

You and your lass deserve all the happiness in the world.

Watch that Dana his head is big enough already. I think he ought to get hitched next year. The drama is overwhelming. Why should he be happy for 2 more years?

I thought this was wonderful news, but I saw it first on FB as usual. Well done Jim. I'm very pleased for you both. xx

I should have told the cellar first, but you guys knew ahead of time. And the Fam was noodging me the whole first half.

When I asked her, I grabbed a guy that was standing nearby and asked him to take our picture. Told him what I was up to.

He had the foresight to take video on his phone while he was taking our picture with mine. Just as I propsed, her sister's boyfriend texted 'do it yet?' and he missed the shot. He was nice enough to email me the video, though.

Sorry it's crap quality. He had an iPhone, so I had to convert the file.

Nice memento, but the real fun is in the future. It will be such a great trip. :thumb:

It just goes to show the difference between a regular kiss and a diamond ring kiss.

On its way to Nakina NC. Took about 5 hours of dottering around in the garage to shape it. Used a lot of tools... Had a fun day off.
