Well, good news - congrats, Richard! Is this the next step now: ?

Alan Fraser

Oh, I don't know about that. It used to happen to me all the time...I had to beat them off with a stick.

Seriously, Congratulations, Richard.

Congratulations Richard.

I heard that Sketchup and 'newlywed' are not very compatible

Frederik

Congratulations..!!

Like Pete just said, Sketchup and 'newlywed' can be a dangerous combination...
But wish you the best of luck..!!
Looking forward to see the pictures of your wedding...
Have you set a date..??

I can imagine! Taking my part 3 this year to finally qualify as an architect isn't going to help things either!

We are thinking of sometime around September 2009.

Really can't concentrate on work today - still hasn't sunk in that i'm now engaged!!

Congrats richard

Congrats. Good for you. I proposed to my wife on a Valentine's day. It comes up every year. You only have to remember every 4th year.

My wife and I just had our 10th anniversary on the 28th. I tried to get her to marry me on the 29th so I would only have to get a gift every 4 years but she did not want to wait 2 years. Oh yeah, and she did not like the idea... go figure.

Congratulations.

you must have had a good supply of white silk gloves. (when you refuse on a leap day you must reply with a pair of white silk gloves)

Gaieus

Actually the leap day is the 26th. But surely 29th only happens in every 4th year and who cares about calendars...

Alan Fraser

Yes, John. I had to start my own silk farm; it was getting so expensive.

I was going to say that I'd like to see someone attempt to propose during a leap second, but it looks like they are due to be killed-off in 2013...leap seconds, not the proposers, that is.

rsw

It was suggested that we wait until the next leap year for the wedding, but my fiancée didn't really appreciate that idea!!

Congratulations Richard!
