Congrats on your engagement!!

Can't wait to hear about your trip!

 

[Maria Rose]

Congratulations!! Really enjoying your trip report!

 

[pkondz]

(The title of this report might give you a hint though..)

Nope. Not a clue.

The usual suspects: Me and Jamie!

Still no clue. Those are monochromatic ears, right?

OK, the suspense that I tried to create for “the best of times” lasted approximately 3 seconds, but I can’t possibly keep it a secret any longer.

JAMIE AND I GOT ENGAGED!!!

(We're getting married in September 2020!)

Congratulations! Wonderful!

And so nice of you to invite all of the DIS to the wedding! I love cake, so this is good.

And honestly, looking back over “the worst of times” on this trip, it was awful in the moment, but now we can kinda laugh about it.

Oh dear... but glad you can look back and laugh.

It was just some pretty nasty food poisoning within the group, which ruined Jamie’s initial plans to propose

Ew... had an issue with that, myself, recently.

We had the most hilarious time, and that was just the beginning of our adventure!

Me – Woody
Fran – Buzz
Rob – Forky
Jamie – Little Bo Peep

Makes complete sense.

You’re welcome to skip over these if you’re not interested,

Nope! I didn't

Good lord where do I start with this report!

How about at the end and work backwards?

Oh well, my mum had asked if I wanted to do something, so we decided to go shopping at our local mall.
Little did I know, that instead of the cinema, Jamie was actually heading to that exact same mall, at that exact same time, with Rob, and Fran, to pick out my engagement ring!!!

Ruh, roh!

I told Jamie I was going shopping, and panic immediately ensued in their secret group chat ​

I bet!!

It snowed so badly that just 5 days before we were due to fly, our airport closed and cancelled all flights
So that was fun and stressful.

Totally feel your pain.

It involved two nights away in a huge fantastic house in the middle of nowhere.

Wow! That's either
1. The start of a super fun weekend. Or;
2. The start of every horror movie ever.

the groom had answered all of the questions on video wearing a pink mankini

And I so do not want to see that.

That evening two chefs came out to the house and cooked us a gourmet 3-course meal!

Really! That's both cool and awesome!

he didn’t even drink so that he could get up and clean the house the next morning, so it was nice any tidy for my return.

We figured that as the return flight drew closer the airline would rather get rid of their spare premium seats than have them sitting empty.
And we were correct!
We paid £50 each and used some miles to upgrade, it was a sweet deal!

Nice score, there.

[pcbianchini]

Congratulations! I am so excited to read all about it.

 

[Mr. lncredible]

Congratulations on the engagement!!
I’ve been reading your trip reports for the last several years and always thought you two were such an awesome couple. I often wondered why he hadn’t proposed yet and my only logical conclusion was that you must have really smelly feet. It’s so wonderful of Hymie to be able to overlook that.

 

[HumblePie]

Congratulations!! I can't wait to hear all about your trip!

 

[ALEXandFAB]

Congratulations on your engagement! You two are the sweetest couple. So happy for you!

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

I love reading all of your trip reports and so happy there's another one.

CONGRATULATIONS on your engagement.

 

[TheLittleKatie]

I have followed you over here! Can't wait to hear all about this trip and Disneyland Paris!

Wooo glad you're here!!

Congratulations!

Thank you!!!

Oh no! it will be a good story to tell over the years. (I guess)

Exactly! Thankfully we can all have a good chuckle about it now

Congratulations!!!! I cannot wait to read all about it!

(Also excited to read a new TR!)

Thanks so much!! I'm excited to relive it!

Not first... but first page.
Back later to read!

Not first... not good enough Pedro

Man you really made it it hard on Jamie! Ha.

I know! Jamie said he considered going the same place without saying anything and just hope we didn't bump into each other, but Fran absolutely refused She's the smart one I think!

Your Hen Party actually sounds like a lot of fun. Glad the weather worked with you!

It was a lot of fun! I'm not a big party/clubbing person, so a couple of nights in (with a lot of wine!) was perfect!

Popping over from your last TR. Looking forward to reading more about your adventures- the good and the bad. Congratulations on your engagement!!!!

YAY and thank you so much!!

 

[TheLittleKatie]

Awwwww, congratulations! I've really enjoyed your TRs and am so happy to see you guys engaged! Many happy wishes to you both!

Eeek thank you so much!

Congrats on your engagement!! I’m so happy for you guys! Your “almost busting” the engagement ring story is so funny, I have a similar one when my fiancée was asking my parents for my hand in marriage and also when he was planning the proposal! Congrats again!!

Your girls trip looks like so much fun!! And I’m so excited to read on this trip report!
