So as some of you might recall me and H2B made a 'decision' to get married. It was the right time in out lives and we were thinking about starting a family, however I never had the big proposal - even a ring!
For the Easter weekend we had planned to go camping to North Wales - turn in the weather made me think that we shouldn't go so H2B suggested we go to his work mates caravan - not ideal but at least we would be away. Anyway the day before we we due to set off we sat down to look at where we were going to on the laptop and H2B said - 'this is where we are going' I looked and it was a picture of Paris!!! I said don't be silly we are going in a caravan etc! apparently he had been planning the whole trip for ages and had just been leaving little notes about campsites around for my benefit. I was so excited!!!!
So off we flew to Paris and had the most wonderful weekend...H2B was a little on edge as the day went on as all the 'romantic' places were so busy, so he suggested we take a walk along the Seine - I said we should take the boat as we already had a ticket, but he insisted on walking. A little way along he suggested we sit down, which we did, then he said some lovely things and brought out my ring, I put out my hand to find...It was covered in black paint! someone must have sprayed graffiti on the bench just minutes earlier! for anyone else the moment would have been ruined but it was just typically us - when we turned around the graffiti said MMF which H2B translated as Marry Me Forever!
So this weekend I finally got my proposal and my ring (a beautiful antique sapphire and diamond ring) sat next to the River Seine... worth waiting for!
And this is the ring!!! Please excuse the massive flash and fat sausage like fingers!
