spursmaddave Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Thanks for all the messages... well most of them I may have been watching football as the conversation took place I have been reliably informed that you should spend roughly a months wages on an engagement ring, so the month I have selected is July 1985 when I was on a YTS scheme earning £100 a month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BulletMagnet Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 *cough* *cough* although it is true that you are expected to spend a months wages on an engagement ring, you don't get to choose the month, it is always your current salary (sorry for the bad news mate) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James B Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Haha I love the effort that went into that mate! Although you just gave her an open cheque book You're gonna pay dearly for that my friend! If you want an awesome ring at cost price I can give you the name of a contact in Hatton Gdn london. He makes jewelery for shops and did posh and becks ring. He'll make you up a ring exactly how you want it. You pick the diamond (cut and size etc), the band style and material etc and he makes it up. If your missus knows what she wants take a sly pick and he can copy too. You'll save a small fortune! PM me if you want his details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
