I wont go into too much detail as i might bore you but this Glastonbury was a very special one for my and my girlfriend, or should I now saw fiancee.

Yes this year I went for it and proposed, it was the most beautiful sunset i've ever seen, right at the top of the stone circle, looking over the entire site (Glastonbury is what got us talking) down on one knee I whipped it out (the ring that is:P)

Met a group of people after who gave us loads of cheers/ told my girl I was the most romantic person ever etc etc.

Ive spent ages trying to think of the perfect place/scenario to do it, but there is no place more special to us than Glastonbury

Was certainly a special Glasto this year

As  we were wandering throught the Green Fields one evening, I overheard a girl on the phone saying "Guess what?  ....has just asked me to marry him!"

It was lovely.

Congratulations to you both!
I also got down on one knee and asked my girlfriend to marry me at Glasto this year and she said yes.  :) :) :) :)    
It just made the festival even better than usual and it will always be a special place to both of us.
It is such a magical place for so many reasons.
