Ooh, he lowers the tone, doesn't he?

Is it possible to lower the tone 'round here?

We could have fun trying.

Absolutely marvellous! One of things we can be proud that the Briddish government had the nerve to do!

And I'm speaking as a straight female - but I did realise in the past year that my "killer question" to partners was "how do you feel about gay marriage?"

Those who answered "against it", are now exes .

My sister and her wife had a rather lovely "jumping the broom" ceremony at Grianan of Ailach (I'm sure I've spelled that wrong!) years ago...and are one of the happiest and most in love couples I know.

Oh look, Lucky Star's raised the tone. Not a all what I was expecting from this thread.

We went looking for rings.... but didn't see any we liiked the engaguement party wen well though

There's no need for that sort of behaviour. Her we are trying to raise the bar in lowering the tone and look what happens.

Having said that, the civil partnership is long overdue and a sign that, despite the best efforts of a certain Bavarian, the world is capable of accepting differences.

Right, could somebody please lower this tone again.

Ah, 2legs is here. Tone successfully lowered!

Mind.... of course... we did get cross wires when I first heard you say 'we should exchange rings'.... I thought you ment something else entirely different from the little silver and gold bands with diamonds and other stones in them that you put on your fingers....

Rings:

A very personal matter, but I (and he) are very proud of our titanium ones: a plain simple band, but made of one of the strongest elements known to man. We did look at patterned varieties, but in the end decided that simple and pure* was the most powerful statement we could make.


* See how neatly I avoided a Hear'say song there?

I've always been a fan of silver when it comes to jewleary, not that I own much/any jewlery, and I've a distinct lack of ehntheuism for gold

2legs, do you realise that you went all Lloyd Grossman for the word 'enthusiasm' then? If it's affecting your typing I think you need to seek professional assistance.

I have been to see the consulatant at a priivate clinic that specialisms in such problems, and they've diganosed Grossmanitis which I hope to get some treaitment for soon

Well, now I need someone to marry too

And me.

Ooo two more availible people

Well I'm feeling unloved, so anybody avaliable feeling like marrying an american born guy living in britain? Comes with own springer spaniel oh and a car

*bigeyes> *starts drawing up a comparason table for peoples stats to go in

You wouldn't believe how attractive that all sounds to me!

*Imagines 2legs as the new Cilla Black on Gay Blind Date*
