Any other stones that you particularly like? Green ones, bright blue ones, shiny red ones? Pearls? Opals? And if anyone asks you can say something like 'well, the tradition of an engagement ring is very recent anyway. As recently as victorian times it was as common to give a fur or a car as a symbol of the engagement. It's just a deposit, really' And they will back away slowly. Or you could say something about how diamonds kill babies in Africa. That one always goes down a TREAT! :P Why don’t you go for something non-trad? Any other stones that you particularly like?

He just needs some TLC. My guess would be, subject to some viewing, that he has hurt a ligament... have you thought about taking him out to George for a look? Wedding in NZ! YAY! Although I cannot gatecrash :( Hope you guys are well :) Still no word on my bloggeraction - hopefully in the next few weeks. I should sack my IT guy, he sucks. I am sure it’s nothing serious.
