    So how did Martin fix the Scrabble letters ??

    http://blog.moneysavingexpert.com/2008/01/03/thank-you-from-the-msf-and-i-for-all-the-thanks/

    And now to answer the various questions about the Scrabble…

    Q. How did I fix the scrabble letters?

    A. Simple, in the hotel room before we went, I snuck the 15 letters needed from the travel Scrabble set into my pocket; and palmed them out while she wasn’t looking.

    Q. Why 15 letters not fourteen?

    A. Because I needed an A to guarantee I went first – that was placed in a separate pocket

    Q. How many points did I get?

    A. As I put it across two lines, I didn’t really get any.

    Q. Did the MSG/MSF notice?

    A. Half way through she said “hold on don’t you have too many letters”, at which point I asked her to ssssh in such a way she seemed to realize. Then I when I showed her the board and got down on one knee…. she got the hint.

    Very sneaky !!

    Congratulations, what a lovely photo of you both, and what a romantic setting in which to propose. Good Luck with all the preparations for the wedding/honeymoon etc etc. Look forward to hearing all about it in your blog in the coming months.

    Just had a quick look, Martin if you received an OBE or MBE then you could get married at St Pauls Cathedral... ;-)
