…
I am now officially an ugly duckling, this time next year I will be a swan…
Mrs Angela Mary Swan! 
Robby asked me to marry him last night.
we were at my mums wedding yesterday and at the evening meal in a 5 star manor house that the whole family spent the weekend at Rob, on one knee, armed with a ring he’d made from some
of mums wedding bouquet ribbon, asked me to marry him.
I said yes!

or '38…
I wasn’t there…
My Dad is not here…

If Robbie sets down the rules,
tell him to visit the Board…
We’ll put him on the Straight-and-Narrow…
Poppa Willis and sevenOfeleven said they’d back me up till our nose bleeds…
Then we’ll all go out to the pub…
and think about it…

Congrats Ange!
Well, Ange, if you have to get married, that’s cool, I guess it works for some people. I mean, once there is that legal connection or bond or shackle whatever it is, it makes it a bit easier to sponge off of one’s mate. I think that’s at least one good thing about the institution. Hmmm…and if you marry the right person, you’ll find lots of ways of convincing that person to buy you musical toys. Plus it adds another gift-giving date to the calendar, the anniversary. that’s good for a nice dinner, at least. Also, if you really want to upset your in-laws, you can plan a pagan handfasting or something like that, unless your in-laws are pagan, in which case traditional church is the way to go. And when you meet friends at the bar, you can act like your marriage is the greatest ever and make them green. That’s kind of cool. Also, I think it is easier to get car and house loans, so you can go into massive debt up to your eyeballs, when you’re married, but I’m not sure about that.
Gee, actually there seem to be several good things about getting married. Having been married myself for 13 years to a wonderful person who not only allows me to buy cool toys but actually encourages me to do so, so she can play with them, I can say that marriage isn’t necessarily bad. It is what might be described as a contingent good, I think, but I dunno - ask Rob, he’d know.
Make sure to send us all invites - we won’t come, but we’ll send presents!
(Mary says “Aaawwwww! That is so great! That Rob is so romantical!”)
