Special Announcment :-)

Big Cheezy Grin Time

Just to let you all know Dell and Rhys finally managed to get back to Abergavenny to celebrate getting together one year ago at Jaspers signing.

*AND* he proposed :-)

They went off to tell Jasper but for some reason he wasn't in Ottakers so he's getting his own e-mail asking where he was :-)

I'm guessing there will be pics of the ring (which he surprised her with) online at some point, they both sound like they had swallowed a coathanger and it's catching :-)

shellshocked but grinning

How wonderful!!! Congrats to Dell and Rhys!! (and Andrea vicariously! lol!)

And how fantastic it all had something to do with Jasper! Okay, as Editor of WN, I DEMAND a picture of the happy couple and FULL details of the trip and proposal :) (that is if they don't mind sharing!)

And for you, Andrea, I'm going to make those pics clickable...a little easier for everyone to get to!

Aaaawwww! Our second fforumite wedding. How sweet! We all will be invited to the wedding, won't we? Well, at least Jasper will, I assume.

BTW, nice hand, Dell. Congrats to you and Rhys. And to an obviously very pleased Andrea.

Congratulations Dell and Rhys. You probably have other plans, but the gutter is always available for wedding receptions, honeymoons and the like.

But she's such a little thing, and so young ! Congraulations and my best wishes to Dell and Rhys.

Andrea - you don't look old enough to be a granny yet. In fact you hardly look old enough to be Dell's Mum.

Guys - absolutely brilliant, my best wishes to both of you. (and to Rhys - top marks for the romantic gesture)
