Nobody reads this....

...But hey that isn't going to stop me. I even tried to advertise it on my bebo, apparently nobody loves me *shrug* :-)

So it's been over a month since I last updated, how naughty of me. What has been happening in the last month or so...

I've been religiously watching America's Next Top Model and it's so good, I really want to see the other seasons, I feel like I have missed out...ok so I am sad but whatever!

One major thing that happened is that I am now engaged! I proposed on Sunday 2nd March, not quite the 29th of February but he couldn't get the day off so I improvised. He actually said no to wind me up then changed his mind and said that he may as well after all I'm his ticket into Australia. Lol it was probably on par with my dad's "What you doing for the rest of your life?" proposal to my mum for the most unromantic proposal ever, but then I'm not complaining as that is very Graham and I. Hell his ring was late and mine hasn't been ordered yet, I have a temporary one for the time being. It's all very comical.

We are planning December for the actual wedding, hopefully the 2nd or the 9th. We both like the idea of the 9th as that will be our five year anniversary and means we don't need to change the date. Less than 9 months to plan a wedding...I'm sure it can be done. We were originally going to do something tiny then come back from Australia in five years or so, but we both realised that it was unlikely to happen as life can get in the way. We will be too busy being Aussies and living our lives. So we are going to make the best out of what we have just now, still going to be a very small affair with family and a few close friends, nothing huge. Partly cos we don't like things to be fussy and partly because budget won't allow it, we are after all Emigrating. What about a honeymoon? Nah unlikely unless we have a wee mad weekend down to Alton Towers or something, again going back to that whole thing of immigration :-) Tis all good.

I have itchy feet and am in need of an adventure and what better way to cure itchy feet than to bugger off to Australia and drink beer. We are aiming for June 2009 so fingers crossed there. I know I am going to become the girl people once knew who moved away and who they won't know what happened to but I don't care I'll be living in Australia.

Hmm must stop just now before I drift off to fantasy again.

Love and stuff
