    Memento of that day in May

    So, to round off a rather fantastic year, my good lady agreed to be my wife in April (no idea why to be honest). We received a hand crafted fire pit of our own designs from her family as our gift. We chose a silhouette of McCaig's Tower in Oban (where I proposed) and a silhouette of the Edinburgh skyline to go on it. The one bit left was my choice and there's a wee pic of it below. Rather nice if I do say so myself 🏆

    Congratulations, mate. Looks great. Any chance of a pic of the light it casts?

    Enjoy her while you can. She will turn out like the rest of them.
    If I was you I'd make the most of that fire pit and just keep putting all your money into it.
    Oh, congratulations by the way.

    Excellent

    All my wife got me was a couple of blades of grass off the pitch, via an intermediary obviously

    One of the most original and best pieces of cup final memorabilia I've seen. Can picture myself having a few beers and staring into that, dreaming of that brilliant day.

    Magnificent !!

    Magnificent! Cannae beat a wee fire in the garden of a summers evening.

    Even better with Sir David lighting the place up!
