Me and Ian



Suppose I better tell you all how we met :)

It was May 2006, and a group of us were all meeting and going down to Laxey for the Blues Festival. Our friend Phil invited Ian along too.
The story Ian tells everyone is that we met in the bus shelter. Which is true. Phil and Ian were already there when I arrived. I was talking with someone (I think my sister) about the Take That concert that I had just come back from and later on Ian asked me about it and got talking from there really. It was quite boring in Laxey so we all decided to get the bus back into Douglas, and go to the pubs there. It was freezing in one (think I was coming down with something!) and Ian lent me his coat. The group got split up and I ended up going home with his coat. Only knowing his first name I had no idea how to get it back to him.
On the Sunday when we had all arisen, my sister kept saying that Ian fancied me, and he kept talking about me to her that night! Well in the end, I got Ian's number from Phil and text him to let him know that he will get his coat back. We arranged to meet for a drink, and the one drink lasted all day, got a KFC and ate it whilst watching the Red Arrows on the Prom (awwww). Since then we have been inseparable......

On 29th Feb 2008, Ian was away snowboarding in France, and I was at a friends house. I text Ian to see how he was (as he had had a accident a couple of days before) and i jokingly said, I can propose to you today, so will you marry me. His reply was "Yes". So i said, i was only joking and said he wasn't!! I was so over the mood and screetching everywhere. And when he got home the next day, he still said he was serious. A couple of weeks later, we went out and choose a ring. Whooo hoo it was all official, the planning commenced.

So thats our story. xx
