    Our son Christopher has got engaged to his girlfriend of three years Beth this evening. The Big Lils are a happy family tonight and the patriarch of the family is now going to consume a great deal of alcohol in celebration!:D

    Congratulations Christopher.

    Did he ask his girlfriend's dad before popping the question or can you get away without doing that these days?

    Cheers, mate. She's a lovely girl, too, studying Chemistry at the University of Liverpool.

    Thanks, Ian. The two of them are coming on holiday with us to the Highlands. Beth's never been and Christopher's been telling her how beautiful it is.

    Cheers, Ian. They're on holiday in a cottage on the Yorkshire Wolds at the moment. Christopher's been planning this for months. Beth knew nothing about it until he got down on one knee in the restaurant tonight and proposed.

    Well a visit to Dundee and a tour of Tannadice to see the soon to be aquired Scottish Cup would I'm sure really impress her.

    It certainly is, mate. Introduce yourself, it'd be great to put a face to a name.
