    Where did all the married members propose?

    I planned on doing it at the Trevi fountain in Rome but during the proceeding meal we had a few Peroni's and all that running water made her want to run off for the loo, I had 4 days of trying to get her to go back there but she kept scuppering my plans, we took the train to Venice and as I just couldn't relax so I pounced at the first opportunity by the Bridge of Sighs... she cried.
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

    Eating spag bog on the couch while watching the tellie.

    I said "Will you marry me?".. she replied "Of course I would..."and then carried on watching the TV...

    I had to repeat the question before she realised I was actually asking...

    I went for the surprise factor.. and it worked.

    She didnt cry... but I was very tired the next day.

      Walking down Baker Street, she asked me. Well, it was a leap year.

        At the highest point of the London Eye.
        I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.

              At the top of the Glacier in Val D'Isere whilst skiing. Got down on one knee. She said "really?" three times!

                Ullswater in the Lakes. Not that romantic as she was noticeably pregnant at the time.

                    Not actually married - but engaged.

                    Found a diamond, had the ring made.

                    Box went into a larger box, wrapped up for Xmas,

                    box sat under the Xmas tree until she opened it Xmas morning.

                    She cried.
