Shouldn't really be a suprise cause I asked her but she could have said no.
It was my other half's (Amy) birthday last wednesday and I splashed out. Took her down to London for a few days and stayed at the Hilton in Kensington. Saw lots of the sights and had a couple of good nights out and proposed to her while we were down there.
I go to London all the time but only the industrial and run down areas never get to see the good parts so it was a good break for us too.
One sore point though - How much do London taxi's cost?!?
I spent £100 on taxi's in 3 days! Never missed the Omega and my heated seats so much, congestion charge even seems reasonable at those prices.
Saw Gordon Brown's convoy go over Westminster Bridge. The man who wants us to be eco friendly and blah blah has 2 police motorbikes stopping traffic, a 5 series BMW, a 7 seat Mercedes Vito, a BMW X5 and his Jag XJ in the middle!! F**king hypocrit!
I did OOF proud though as I gave him the middle finger treatment as he went by......childish but appropriate.
Start saving for a wedding now, don't really want a traditional church wedding, bit boring. Leaning towards a venue in Ireland where we can do the whole lot in one place, so if anybody has any leads the would be gatefully received. Aiming for 2010, thought we may aswell be realistic.
Oh and I'm having problems remembering to call her my fiancee instead of my girlfriend, gets me in abit of hot water......sounds like a marriage already
