Exciting News

Feb 17, 2009 09:43

For those that are not following me on Twitter, and so missed the announcement on Saturday, I am very happy to tell you all that Nicola has accepted my proposal of marriage and we are now engaged.

After living together for five years, it became increasingly obvious that we are indeed quite well suited to each other so I decided to make my move.

I roped Andrew Macrae into helping me out by setting out a picnic blanket and champagne on the oval where Nicola and I had our first kiss. I then convinced Nicola that we needed to make a short stop on our way out to Valentines dinner and walked her out onto the oval. I made some kind of soppy speech, got down on bended knee and popped the big question.

Luckily she said yes, so things worked out for the best.

Some random strangers who witnessed the events left a note of congratulations accompanied by a bottle of wine and some chocolates on the windscreen of our car. That was very nice I thought. Romantics appear to be hiding everywhere.

Anyway, that's about it.
