Hi all, i'm a newbie. I have to confess i have been lurking for a little bit but didn't dare post as wasn't engaged ... thought it was gonna happen on our holiday in Cyprus next month but how wrong i was ..............
I got a Hot air balloon trip for my birthday back in August, but it keeps getting cancelled cos of bad weather anyway we finally go to go last night. It was amazing ?
We flew south over lots of landmarks we recognised including Woburn safari park (have got great piccie of the 'toy' giraffes below us, LOL).
Then we stopped of at Loch Fyne in Woburn for a meal (OH insisted .... which i thought was a bit odd, considering I don't like fish!) anyway turns out they have yummy non-fishy dishes on the menu :-)
I was a bit suspicious went we first went into restaurant cos OH asked the waiter for a "quiet table" - which we did get ....... but then the restaurant got really busy (he told me later he'd chickened out).
We were both stuffed after that so decided against pudding and went home. Even though it was only half 8, I was really tired, so got changed into my dressing gown with the intention of looking at some of pictures and hopefully not dropping off to sleep too early on sofa. LOL
Well, went back downstairs where OH got down on one knee, whipped a gorgeous ring and proposed!!!!!!
I was taken completely by surprise and mumbled something along the lines of "err, are you sure?". Apparently thats not appropriate answer to a question like that, LOL. I said yes of course :-)
