Now this is the way to propose…

When we got engaged, many years ago, we thought we did it in style. We were on our first trip away together to Brighton Pride and had booked a jacuzzi suite at a posh hotel, using a discount site, so we thought we were the dogs doodahs! We hadn’t been together long and were very…

I’m writing this today as everyone will be blogging tomorrow, either loving or hating VDay, so thought I’d get ahead of the game and talk about something that’s important to me – Love!!
