cunners Member 141 Member For: 20y 3m 18d Location: Perth Western Australia Posted 18/07/05 05:18 AM Share Posted 18/07/05 05:18 AM Its a very long story but I'll try to keep it as brief as possible - which will be hard!My long time Girlfriend (Trina) is over visiting her rellies in the UK and they decided to go to Gran Canaria (Spain)...Well anyway I knew that she's be at a certian nightspot last night and arrangedwith the nightclub owner and a local photographer to organise a very unique proposal. The DJ at the club played 'our song' and then as part of a spot quiz for drink vouchers asked the crowd who sang it.. Of course Trina put her hand up and he picked her and she answered correctly... The DJ then got her up on stageand put the spotlight on her saying he had a very important message from Australia to read out (a message I asked him to read - soppy stuff that I won't go into)... all the while I was listening via a phone linkup... after he read out the message he asked the crowd to be quiet (they were going ballistic!!) and then said that someone else would like to speak - ME!!! He put the phone through the clubs sound system and I asked her to marry me... crowd went berserk... her and her family cried etc etc.... I also arranged for champagne, flowers and a temporary ring and got a photographer to video the whole event.... I will post when he sends it through!!!I'm just so stoked (and a little proud of myself too ) and just wanted to share with everyone.Heres a photo of my wife to be Trina and her sisters and brother in law (shes second from left in the greenish top)Jason Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18887-i-just-got-engaged/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
