As if 2013 wasn't proving to be a great year already with the birth of my first baby, Dylan, in January, I proposed to my girlfriend yesterday and (thankfully) she said yes. It was the 2nd anniversary since our first date and I surprised her with the proposal. I bought her some flowers and Bob Dylan's "Highway 61 Revisited" (our boy was born to "Like A Rolling Stone" on the birthing mega mix comp I had organised). On the inner sleeve I had written "Will you marry me?" and after she had gone to put the record on she turned to find me on bended knee with the engagement ring (who said romance was dead

).

So 2013 just keeps getting better. Now to start organising the wedding,which we're aiming for next Spring/Summer, and that all important choice of song for the first dance

Sunray....once you get into your late 30's/early 40's you have to go onto the fast track plan

All joking aside, thank you everyone for your kind words.
