splitting the orphanage
I guess there is a time in every relationship when you look around and see all the things you have done, where you have been and where you are headed.
And you then need to decide how to divide all your toys between you.
This is not an easy process.
Who gets the red GT, the green ute, the unfinished projects,the parts, the wrecks.....
After Greg and i spent a weekend away on a cruise trying to ponder this problem there was only one solution......
WE GOT ENGAGED...
After 9 years together we finally did it
And the pressure is now on....Greg always promised when the 3 GT's were ready we would get married.

Re: splitting the orphanage
Congratulations Greg & Liz
Like Gricey said, it could be a huge invite list.
Why not simplify it and get married at the NATIONALS
Start your planning soon
Cheers,
Lewis

Re: splitting the orphanage
an engagment ring could probably re-build a Bellett engine. Are you thinking straight

Re: splitting the orphanage
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH,
Don't worry Greg I took 10 years to finally do as I was told,and it was one of the best decisions I never made.Guess that means a new pair of shorts and thongs for the big day,I have a suite you can borrow if you want to go more formal.
