Before the 23rd still. And you''re sleeping, so I''ll give you a break and save my question for later...

Hahah, I know! Last night we were talking about what to do this weekend and I was like, "Uh huh, I''m all ears, what do YOU want to do?" and he, in his boyishly oblivious way says, "Maybe go to the movies? I really want to see The Watchmen!"

What? No! No movies! Romantic! Sweet! PROPOSAL!

Maybe I''ll tell him we can''t go see the movie until that ring''s on my finger.

No don''t say anything it could be a cleverly disguised ploy

Movies can be romantic - all snuggly in a dark cinema and then a lovely stroll afterwards under the stars with ice-creams you come across a beautiful park under a tree he professes his undying love to you and you live happily ever after

Haha, I don''t think a superhero movie is exactly ''snuggly'' and we might be hard pressed to find some stars being in the big city and all, but I sure like the way you think, darlin''!!
31.gif
Unfortunately (or fortunately?) J sees this movie as "his" thing that he''d be making me do since I have no interest in it myself, so am not sure if he''d combine that with the question....but who knows? We shall see...

Hrmmm there could be a love scene or some scurry action

? I have heard it is really good so you may be pleasantly surprised :). How far are you from St James Park you could feed the squirrels after the movie that might be romantic :D.

Hrmmm now my imagination is ticking you could go for a weekend away in the country for a picnic with devonshire tea and read poetry under the stars and get pleasently tipsy and run through fields of wildflowers :D.

I want to make my guess exactly 1 second after Freke''s, just so there is a better chance that I''m right and she''s wrong. Sort of like on the Price is Right and someone guesses a dollar more than the previous guesser.

Hey Gwen, where in the US are you gonna be??????

Ok, here''s an update on the Saturday plans--we ARE going to see Watchmen (and maybe I have too little faith but he''s been obsessing about this movie for a month and lies terribly so I don''t think it''s a ruse
3.gif
), BUT we''re going to an adorable little town where we spent our first evening down here. I haven''t been back since then, but I''ve wanted to go! It''s so pretty--there''s a big park and a stream where lots of swans hang out, and the town part is nice and has a good looking Thai restaurant we''ve been meaning to try but just never have (Thai''s my favourite!). So this way, we''ll spent the afternoon out there, spend some time enjoying the pretty scenery, and some time seeing this movie that J''s crazy about. Then, maaaaybe, since it''ll be a lovely day in a pretty setting, he''ll do it then, maybe when we''re sitting by the stream! That would be lovely.
30.gif


Anyway, yeah, that''s what I''m thinking, although he did say before we had those plans that he had plans of his own and that I''d "probably see it coming a mile away," to which I made a "pfft, so what" sort of noise, hehe. So, maybe he won''t do it Saturday because he''s got other ideas, or maybe he can mix his ideas with our new Saturday plans?

Guess we''ll have to wait, wriggle and see.

Well, Watchmen is a horrible choice of a movie to watch on the day of your proposal, so I''m going to be a downer and say that it''s NOT this Saturday. So I''m going to specify my bet to March 28th. I''ll bet my fortune cookie!

LOL I could, but then poor J will be devestated and I will have that on my conscience till the end of time, plus I would have to face the wrath of the LIW

Hrmmm if you replace "country" with town and "picnic" with Thai it kinda sounds like what I was thinking

- a bit of a stretch but I still think it is viable

Is it? I know nothing about the movie (know it isn''t romantic or anything) but know that J is really excited about it. Even if it''s my least favourite movie ever, it''ll be over soon enough and then we can spend the rest of the day getting it out of my head.
3.gif
But yeah, who knows? Maybe he''ll change his mind about the movie if he does plan on proposing on Saturday....but maybe not. He''s a strange duck, my J is.

It''s sort of out in the country--still fairly close to London, but far out enough to not feel city-like (that''s why I like it!). Another thought had been to go out to Windsor Castle for the day, since I had wanted to do that for my birthday, but I think it''s still a little pricey so we decided to compromise on going to this little town too.

But yeah, I mentioned wanting to do a picnic soon too....shame we''re so far from Grantchester. Remember my photos from here? I think that''s the PERFECT place to have a picnic and so so romantic for a proposal...
