Sorry for the delay, but last night was WALL*E night, and nothing was going to get in the way of that.

Many thanks for all of the kind thoughts.

Here''s the diamond from Good Old Gold. So happy I got it before the current drought.

She and I designed the setting together with Pete at Quest (www.questjewelers.com, MonkeyPie) She expected the Asscher to be a little dark, because I don''t think she''d seen a really well cut one, so the setting was designed for maximum brightness. Turns out that was probably unnecessary

.

There was some sort of nail-related tragedy, so it''ll be some time before the full monty is available, but here''s some pics to tide you over.
