Well I popped the question and she said yes. Haven't set a date yet

. Work on that one next.
She wanted me to get down on one knee... but with my knees.. it'd take forever to get me back on my feet :-) :-) :-) .
Any woman that'd take me shopping at a hobby shop and tell me I haven't spent enough money... man I have to marry.

. Just wanted to share the good news with all my friends here.

Congratulations Jerry, marriage is a wonderful institution to be placed in. It dosen't really hurt and I've tried it a few times. Besides after your married you'll be able to park in the handicapped space at the mall.

Take her there again after 1 year of marriage, to see if you get the same reaction :-) :-) :-) Does "hook, line and sinker" ring a bell?

Nah, only joking .... they´re not all like that. Good luck to ya man. She sounds like the perfect modellers wife. Married for 5 years now, and fair play to her indoors, she still, will go out of her way let me indulge in modelling habits. Congratulations
