    hi all no i wasnt the chap on BBC did hear about that ha ha just come back warn out and knackered ha ha, well better say the story first off how it went had the ring in my jacket pocket the whole time , she didnt suspect a thing , anyways on new years eve night when it was coming up to 12am we watched the fireworks from st james park near buckingham palace which was great spot not to hectic but few idiots around hammered but was great atmosphere, i thought to myself this aint the right time was way to hectic and mood wasnt right so we celebrated watched the fireworks etc was great had few cheeky cans or to , the next day we went to madam tussades (spelling) had awesome time then went back to the hotel got ready to go to the theatre to watch dirty dancing i then said why dont we go down to st james park and have nice stroll in the park as i always wanted to do it as really pretty park with the pond etc and ducks, so we went down there and stood by the pond while we watched the world go by could see the london eye also from there and the moon was out was lovely and very romantic , i told her how much i loved her etc and done the one knee job and she said YES i was well chuffed and she was very suprised and happy i told her not to cry as we was going for lunch before the theatre she phoned her mum straight told her good news etc and the whole family were amazed and suprised , by the way many thanks all you off you for your help over the past few days all the stress and strain is off my shoulders now to pay most off the ring off :( ha ha
