I'm fairly sure my engagement ring has been delivered in the post today... it's an unbranded box but it's got a postal label on it with "antique diamond ring" and some value details on it.

DP was doing the gardening so I signed for it and have put it in the hallway as I normally would. He doesn't seem to have noticed the label. Do I say something?

(I'm fairly sure it's for me Grin)

Don't say that!
OP has good reason to think otherwise- his mum, and the fact she's 95% sure it's in his jacket pocket.

A parcel has a label saying antique diamond ring? Really?

FenellaMaxwell · 15/05/2019 23:10

@SaskiaRembrandt presumably a customs declaration label?

SaskiaRembrandt · 15/05/2019 23:24

FenellaMaxwel maybe - I've never had parcel labels that were so specific though. I suppose it depends where it was shipped from.

Absolutepowercorrupts · 15/05/2019 23:27

I wonder how many more pages the op wants before she posts, is she looking for some kind of record?
@DaisiesAndCompasses
Wishing you well and I hope you get the proposal you want. 💐

smilingontheinside · 15/05/2019 23:29

I'm excited as been married nearly 40 years and never got a proposal or a ring just a "well as we are buying a house suppose we should get married" Hmm hope it is a lovely romantic proposal Flowers

Chipmunk29 · 16/05/2019 00:20

Perhaps OP is busy enjoying her holiday and hasn't been thinking about MN.

I had jewelry delivered this week but it's for a friends wife birthday. The only way he can make it a surprise is for me to get it. I'll hand it to him on the day of her birthday.

flowergrrl77 · 16/05/2019 08:24

@cdtaylornats heh that sounds like my home, the amount of times I have accidentally opened a parcel that was supposed to be a present for me because I neglected to look at the name!

So maybe you’re friends with my husband and I’ll be getting jewellery soon? :D

Tattygran14 · 16/05/2019 08:41
