I need a bit of help from the masses here, opinions of any woman will be most appreciated.

My girlfriend knows about my plans to propose as I let some stuff slip and now she knows I have the ring. I still want this to be a surprise for her and don't want to do the normal restaurant thing (too public).

Do any of you have any ideas on how I can still make it a surprise and romantic for her.

We were, errr, horizontal when I proposed.

Not sure if it counts as 'romantic' as such, though…

I surprised my wife at the top of Ben Nevis, 1st time I have seen her speechless!! 😀

Oh, come on!
If she knows about the ring, she knows you're going to propose.

It won't be a surprise unless you ask someone else entirely.

How about after a good BJ ?
That's known as "positive behavioural reinforcement"

Give it to anotyher women, that will suprise her. 😀

Firend of mine hid the ring at the top of a mountain(hill) that was relevant to them. (Old man of Coniston I think)

He made up some sort of map / clues and she had to find it.

Alternatively just take her away somewhere very nice and do it the tried and tested way on a very nice beach

I'd forget the romantic bit, you've got 50 years ahead together. Best not set standards you can't maintain 🙂

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner!

I thought my brothers method was pretty good:

On holiday private villa with a group of friends he wrote on her white top with an invisable ink marker…..then chucked her in the pool

Invisable ink + water = visable ink

she said yes inbetween crying and laughing

Prince Albert with the ring and "Will You Marry Me" tattooed on your old fella (in small letters probably 🙂 ).

I agree with Tiger6791. The surprise is past. Geocache it!

OK, i like enduro-aid's plan but I would need a pool and some sudden climate change.

I might just go with a geocache plan.

As your swallowing your next door neighbours sausage… that will definately surprise her, or will it ?

surprise her by asking her sister.

Can be re-used as well! Winner!

As an alternative, you could leave it hidden, with a series of tenuous riddles that she and her friends have to work out the answer to to get to the next clue

go for doggy style and slip the ring up the brown. OOOOOO!

**** me he's marrying Anneka Rice?

Any kind of set up and it's not a surprise is it, especially now she knows. We were decorating when I proposed I passed her a cuppa with a ring under her biccy. That night we went out and did the romantic thing at a swanky restaurant to celebrate.
I'm 13 years in and 2 kids up on the deal!!
