So if you’re not following either of us on twitter, facebook or flickr, then you might not have heard. Jarod proposed this morning, and I said yes. So that means we’re all engaged! Hurrah!

So here’s the quick FAQ:

How did he propose?
Well, Jarod the engagement ring sent me an email this morning explaining that Jarod had lost my engagement ring, but luckily there was a series of clues which would help me find it. The first of which was under my keyboard.

There were about 14 clues in total, leading me around the house and out to places like Canada Bay (where we had our first picnic) and the car park at the Friend in Hand hotel (where we met). After about 2 hours and back at home, the final clue said ‘Let’s do this already…’ and he did the whole down-on-one-knee thing.

The funniest part was at Canada Bay – Jarod had buried the clue in the sand, but the tide had come in since he’d buried it that morning. Result? The clue had been washed away. Oops.

What does the ring look like?
Like this!

What does that mean?
It means we’ll pick out a ‘proper’ ring together, eventually.

Did you know he was going to ask?
Kinda. He’s not a very good secret keeper. But he made me work for it.

What does Train think?
She was rather annoyed this morning with all the commotion. She was trying to sleep. This afternoon she was able to catch up on her lost sleep and so is now much happier.

So how did you guys meet anyway?
We met online through flickr. About a month or so later Jarod came to a Mic in Hand (while I was manning the door) and we met in real life. Three months later he moved in with me. Hurrah!

When’s the wedding/engagement party/free booze happening?
Dunno! We only got engaged this morning, you see.

Any questions I didn’t cover? Chuck em in the comments ;)
