for asking my chap to marry me on 29th- do I get him a ring? But chaps don't generally have engagement rings? Do I get my own ring ( will only be a cheapy thing either way but more of a token I guess )

he better bloody say yes! After 8 yrs, buying a crap house and having a baby (wonderful) together I think he probably will haha

thanks for any tips

TwllBach · 29/02/2012 16:27

I've been avoiding this thread every time it comes up in Active Threads because I assumed it was someone new complaining that they didn't know how MN worked!

I'm glad I did though because now I don't have to bear the suspense for more than a couple of hours Grin

Good luck OP!

I really thought I'd missed something then. Shock Glad he missed the vest. :)

DrowninginDuplo · 29/02/2012 18:04

Hope nothing happens in the next twenty minutes just off to put the DC to bed early so I can come back to watch the thread.

fabwoman · 29/02/2012 18:08

Oh bugger. I thought there would be an answer by now SadGrin.

Did anyone see the mass proposal on This Morning? It was crap and not how I would have had the women do it at all.

monkeybananas · 29/02/2012 18:10

I'm so glad you thought that fabwoman about the mass proposal- thought I was just being cynical but it was totally mince!!

Honeydragon · 29/02/2012 18:13
fabwoman · 29/02/2012 18:18

It really waw, mb, wasn't it?

I would have had them all write will you marry me? on the answer boards or just 1 couple. 10 women all saying it at the same time was awful.
