Charlotte’s ring arrived today. Guess what, it’s too big! Brilliant! Hopefully we can get them resized, or I may just cry. There’s a place in Southampton who can do it while-we-wait, apparently. Fingers crossed.
We’ve also all-but settled on Dashboard Confessional’s “Stolen” as our wedding song. Both that and “Hands Down” fit perfectly for me, but Charlotte prefers “Stolen”, so “Stolen” it is!
I hate, HATE cheap jewellery. You can spot it a mile off.
Charlotte and I decided way before I was made redundant that we would buy second hand wedding rings. I tried to think of a romantic metaphor for this, but the truth is that second-hand jewellery is an absolute steal. It’s ridiculous how much this depreciates, really! I managed to get my lovely 18ct gold and platinum (hallmarked, awaiting valuation - y’know, out of curiosity!) band for an absolute bargain, when you consider the cost of platinum. I have to say that it’s one of the most amazing rings I’ve ever seen. It’s exactly what I wanted, and I didn’t even know I wanted it. Congratulations to pro-eBayer Charlotte for the find.
I said recently that I was bored of video games. I think that what I was actually bored of is the games I have. I rented two recently (Soul Calibur IV and Far Cry 2) and had loads of fun with them.
I’ve always wanted a lovely Moleskine. I was going to get a nice pen as well, y’know to make me look all pro, but I write much better with a bic (proper bic, mind you) so I left it. I’ve already started making some plans as to how my new portfolio is going to look, and my new blog design is looking pretty good if I do say so. It should be finished soon. I’m really getting to love Wordpress quite a lot.
