The Best Thing I Did In 2006

The other day I listed the top 7 things I did in 2006, but stopped at 6 because one thing stands out head and shoulders above the rest. On Christmas Eve, my girlfriend of four years accepted my marriage proposal. She is a beautiful person inside and out, but obviously I can't put a picture of her on this site whilst I maintain my anonymity.

All the people we have told are delighted at the news and it feels great that we are both so welcome in each others' family.

With my girlfriend fiancee having a full-time job and week-end university study commitments I have promised to take the lead in organising the wedding which I think will take place in Prague (but with an additional service/celebration in Slovakia/UK at some point).

The wedding preparation adds to a rather long list of new and exciting projects personal and political that I have lined up for 2007. I don't think I've ever looked forward to a year with as much as optimism.

    Congratulations! I am a strong believer in marriage.

    I'm sure you have a good reason to maintain your anonymity - and that of Mrs PragueTory-to-be.

    But I'll bet that her Christian name ends in an "a" !

    Have you thought it through PT? And will there be a pre-nup?

  14. UKDP - I've had more than four years to think it through. We've moved house six times in that period. Anyone that knows me and the missus knows that I'm a lucky man. Your pre-nup question is a good one - I think it depends on the jurisdiction we marry in doesn't it?
