I did the asking on Valentines day, I bought the biggest and the most tackiest diamond (glass) ring I could find. I spent all evening making a fab dinner with champers and candels the whole works. He came in from work (I was a nervous reck) he was a bit surprised at all the effort I went to, but he sat down eat his startedand and his main course, ( I played with my food as my stomach was in bits) I had got a bakewell tart (he loves them) I cut the top off and scooped out the filling, I wrapped the ring in red tissue paper, put it back into the tart put the filling on top, put the top on and poured hot custard on it and served it to him. He ate about 3 spoons before he spotted the tissue paper, he picked it out of the tart and while he was trying to figure out what it was I was on bended knee asking him to marry me. For once he was speechless
