Hi Everyone

Some of you will know and others don't.
But Muddy and I are an item.

Muddy proposed to me just after midnight New Years Day at John and Suzette's place on the Murray River.

Of course I said Yes!

Muddy will keep you posted as to when he decides to make me an honest woman of me.

Cya

Hi Everyone,

Yep the news is out! We are very happy.

We actually met via ExplorOz so we are very pleased to be announcing our engagement in this forum.

Thanks to all the members and contributors that have made us feel so welcome over the past couple of years.

Cheers all
Muddy

That is sooooo COOL!!!

Excellent work.

I remember, two years ago, I was up at Willems house for a Christmas Bash, and one of his guests asked how I knew Willem, because I was a new face in town.

I just said, in my husky, alluring voice..."We met on the Internet..."

I still don't think this lady quite got over that comment....

Anyway...

Good work, and many happy years ahead for you both.

Well Well Well, now it all fits into place, new years eve on the Mighty Murray and while watching the great fire works display on the river barge, surrounded by lots of well lit river craft, your around the back behind "The Prado" making your own, and that twinkle in your eye wasnt a reflection from the fire works after all !!!

Now my Grandmother told me many many years ago to get a nice girl with good teeth, LOL, well we have made it to 30 years so must have chosen reasonably well, but hell gran obviously never looked in Glenda's mouth hahahahahaha.

So the obvious questions have to be, have you checked out her teeth, run a finger over her bank account to see if she can support you in a manner that you have become accustomed, and checked out her boat ?
Oh yes sorry this one comes with a Camper Trailer, not a boat (YET).

So looks like a riverside wedding next new year with free beer and food for those hungry ones, and plenty of water for moonlight dips.
Ill book the spot and make sure the lawns are well watered and trimmed. LOL

YOUR ALL INVITED

OK guy's great news, you sprung that one on us, all the best for the future from Pesty and Mrs. Cubby. Catch up soon.
