to not know the etiquette

[maddening]

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

mads

Aww, congratulations to maddening and all the other proposers on this thread. Def should go into classics!

Congratulations to all....I proposed to my husband a few years ago....best thing I ever did!

oh bloody hell I missed the whole thing!

Congratulations I'm really pleased for you, and reading the thread with all the suspense was making me grin like a fool

Congratulations maddening and Mr maddening-to-be!

Congratulations to the ostrich family too!

Lurked all day then couldn't get on computer all night last night. Couldn't wait to see what happened this morning.

Woo, congratsa! Couldn't find this thread last night.

awwwwww thanks guys

rando,ly ds strn last night! (he doesn't usually) so that was good ( although I fewl pants today considering I've had the best sleep in over a year!)

I think I'd have fewl pants too if I'd had the night you just did

haha yep felt shattered all day so missed swimming but went to a toddler group this afternoon to make up for it

I think you should print this thread off as a little reminder and keepsake.

Congratulations! Only found post last night, but fantastic fun to read through, what a brilliant proposal!

Mads, did you take a photo of DS in his vest yet? :)

I did but need to get on df computer to upload it and he is out doing ot tonight so might be saturday now but I promise I will and might even get a pic of the cufflinks....

I am def printing off this thread and will keep it with ds' vest forever! Df is slowly reading the thread from the start and is loving it - he can't believe it!
