We're Engaged!!!
Hey Guys,
I'm very excited to announce that while on holidays over in Perth to visit my family, Bob (kombibob) proposed to me while at Kings Park over looking
the lights of the city at night. We couldn't be happier right now. It has been a great year with buying our house in the mountains, myself getting an
awesome new job and now our engagement. And to think, we have Volkswagens to thank for it! 
Big smiles all round

Hi
Congratulations to you both. Is this an "Aussie Veedubbers romance"? As in did you both meet on here? That would be cool, a VW cyberspace
marriage.

Congratulations. Getting married is a great thing.
If I can offer some advice, there is a pre-marriage course you can do called "prepare". It's a great way to get to know what you both expect of
eachother and the sorts of values you have brought from your families. My wife and I did it and it was lots of fun and a great way to start life
together. You can check it out here...

Thank you so much everyone, still smiling and getting used to wearing a ring on that finger. I'm superstitious when it comes to the whole you
mustn't put a ring on that finger as it will give you bad luck thing, unless it's an engagement/wedding ring. I have to take it off for work and i
hate it so much, i keep thinking i've lost it!
It's definitely a VW romance, and you could say we met here on AVD too. We met 2 years ago when i flew over from Perth for the Valla Spectacular in
NSW. The Saturday night is the biggest party night where everyone gets together, and there was an AVD get together at the Pub. Bob and i got to
talking over MANY a drink and dance, and we kept in contact after i flew home. Many a dollar was spent flying back and forth, and eventually something
had to give as we couldn't take the long distance thing anymore. I packed my bags and said good-bye to my family and friends and came over here to be
with Bob. Scary when it's the first time i'd moved out and was moving to another state where i didn't really know anyone. It was all so worth it.
Like any couple we have had our ups and downs, but it's only made us stronger.
Not only did our love of VW's bring us together, but combined we now have a kick ass collection!!!
It's already planned that it will be a VW wedding all the way... how could we not?

Ha ha, you dont know how many times people have said that to me now they know we're getting married. Would give me a great excuse to talk Bob into
letting me buy a beetle pedal car!
Thanks heaps everyone, your comments are wonderful!

Aaw, isn`t that sweet. Perhaps we should start a AVD dating thing here!! Congratulations to both of you. Going to be interesting to hear what pressies
you get! Roof rack instead of a toaster. Under dash bamboo tray instead of a chopping block. Sports steering wheels instead of clocks. Bottles of NOS
instead of champagne. cheers
