No, the plane wasn't for me...
Published in Untagged by lisa
Right, let's clear one thing up: No, the plane wasn't for me!
For anyone who wasn't at the International and hasn't got a clue what I'm talking about, let me explain.
On Saturday a plane flew over the trial field with a banner trailing behind it with the words: ‘Lisa I love you, will you marry me?'
And it flew over twice for good measure.
Since then people have been asking if it was meant for me.
But alas, no.
Lee had already asked me to marry him on Christmas Day last year. It was a few weeks after we'd been involved in a car crash and I think it made us both realise this isn't a practice run.
And besides, he told Kevin he'd never have spent that much money on a proposal. Ahhh, ever the romantic.
Coincidentally it was Lee's first outing to a sheepdog trial. Bit of a baptism of fire; sitting in a field, watching dogs for three long days, but I think he enjoyed it! And if you're going to go to a trial you might as well go to the International. That's what I told him anyway.
In case you're wondering, my answer was yes. We definitely need to win the Lottery now if we're ever going to buy a smallholding AND have my dream wedding.
