A few weeks ago, I pointed out that I didn’t know how my mum and dad had got engaged. I have now found out. This is courtesy of my sister's encyclopaedic knowledge of family history. While I have been cramming my head with important stuff (like when to re-raise out of position when you're holding a pair of sixes) she has been idling her time away paying attention to family history. No good will come of it.
Apparently, after mum and dad had been courting for a few years, my mum said to my dad, “Don’t you think it’s about time we got engaged.” My dad – ever the romantic – mulled this over for a while, and eventually agreed that she had a point.
