On Top Of The World...

That's how we're feeling right now. And that's pretty much where we were yesterday, when Ricky popped the question - atop the biggest hill in Corfe Castle, overlooking Poole Harbour and the old town. As Blur once said, It windy there, but the view's so nice...

It was a really beautiful moment; we'd just been for a walk around the castle. Ricky would have proposed there, but a flock of pesky German tourists put paid to that plan.

As it happens, Lizzie has a thing about the next hill along (be sure to ask her about the Sound Of Music moment she had there a while ago). So we climbed right to the top, exhausting though it was, and the rest is history. Actually, the rest is the future, if you see what we mean...

Ricky got down on both knees (not so much out of choice, you understand, I sort of collapsed under the weight of the ring, Frodo style). Lizzie said "yes, of course I will". Which was a relief xx
