Hello everyone.You have all been so strong in helping me in so many differemnt ways i thought I would also share some wonderful happy news.
Yesterday was the 31st birthday of my identical twin boys. Today I had a call from the one in the army to say he and his girlfriend becam engaged yesterday. I am so thrilled for them both and excited as well

I will not bore you all but it is great to have such good news to post

The boys were together when it was announced.!!!

Hi Bridget

What lovely news - I am so pleased for you and send many congratulations to your son and his fiancee. Does the other son have a girlfriend and if so, will it push him into proposing too? lol


So much difference to when o.h.'s son got engaged around the end of Jan, it was all kept secret and only told to certain members of the family at a time, it was emailed to his grandfather which upset the old boy.
Even the wedding in August this year, is being arranged in a hole in the corner way, don't understand them!

Let's hope your lad and his young lady and his brother too have wonderful lives ahead of them.
Bet you are bubbling over with excitement, I would be, wish my son could meet his ideal woman!

How lovely Bridget, congratulations to the happy couple.

Thank to both Liz and Ann,

Other tiwn was narried but his wife left him because "marriage is boring", they had been together for eight years having met at Uni,
He was devastated at the time, but now has another Welsh lass who is very good for him and they were together when second twin announced the intention and brought out a beautiful platinum and diamond ring!!!

Bridget

The ring sounds beautiful Bridget, how lovely for his twin to be present as well

Congratulations to your son and his fiancee Bridget.
Always lovely to hear good news :-)

Somehow or another they have managed to spend their birthday together every year, even when engaged son was in Afghanistan he came back in time to be with his twin!!!
It is so wonderful to be able to post happy news,

Bridget

How Lovely

No wonder you are so pleased.
It's great that your sons were together when this special event was announced. They must be very close.

My very best wishes to all of these young people, especially the newly engaged couple.

Wonderful news, thank you for sharing. Great, as has already been said, that once again, your twin boys were able to be together on the extra special day.
You must be delighted.

Woke up this morning and it was wonderful to still have that very happy feeling. now I am wondering where the BIG EVENT may take place,,,I would like it to be in Sandhurst where son passed out (no he did not faint) but it could be in N Ireland as that is where her family are.

Listen to me rambling I do not know if the date and place has even been discussed yet, I must find out what gift they would like and send the biggest card I can find.

I will not keep on about it, I promise, but after all te worrying about my niece it was such a relief to have happy news.

Have a lovely day everyone.

Bridget

Have just read this. Wonderful news indeed Bridget. I am really pleased for you.

Congratulations to your son and his fiancee.

You keep on as much as you like we enjoy happy news as well, too much doom and gloom around. Lovely to see a thread that is full of happiness.

Aw Bridget, that is wonderful news.... and keep on as much as you like.... I love hearing about lovely things!!

(((((((hugs)))))

Daff xxxxx

Bridget that is wonderful news,its so nice to hear some good news.If you want to go on about it you go for it! Good Luck to everyone.D

OH thank ou all so much for your delightful reaction. I do believe that good news lifts the spirit and helps us to cope with the not so good news. I am going to talk to son and fiancee this evening. I also still have to go and buy a congrats card......how remiss of me.
How I remember when I was first engaged, I couldn't stop showing everyone my beautiful platinum and diamond ring which my future husband had bought with the money he had saved for a jaguar car. My ring was old and had been bought from a well known Jewish jeweler in the east end of London......

Wonderful days

Enjoy your day everyone

Bridget

Bridget, enjoy choosing the card and chatting with the newly engaged couple this evening. Bet you are still floating on that cloud of excitement.
