paris is a terribly romantic city isn't it?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

we, that is the lovely jo and myself, have a bit of good news... ;)

as of friday evening we are engaged to be married, as i believe the expression goes :D

i asked her when we got back to the hotel after friday's gig, and she has done me the massive honour of accepting.

oh yes :o :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

i brought a ring to paris with me, with the intention of asking her at a point when it seemed appropriate... thanks to mrs snowey's "elizabeth duke" comments in the bar after the gig that moment came back at our hotel ;D :lol: :notworthy:

thanks heather - you gave me an opening to pop the question!! ;)

so, there you go.

suffice to say we're both quite chuffed ;)

there are no further plans as yet - we're going to enjoy the theory of "getting married" before we actually begin the stressful task of planning it :lol:

but don't worry, we'll let you all know when we have something concrete planned. you're not invited, but you'll at least know about it ;)

and no, its not a shotgun wedding ;) :lol:

ever so slightly happy today... :D

Yeah, Paris is supposed to be a romantic town... Still I can show quite a lot of nasty and unromantic-as-hell places. :roll: :?

When you say the band was a bit thinner do you mean this one?
