…Deliberately!

OK, it was an engagement ring rather than the actual cash but i suppose the principle is still the same..

which one, where? I'll just get my snorkel!

Grid reference?

😉

EDIT Too slow

I had to google "tarn" 😳 . Good for you, clean break & all that. Make a note of where it landed, just in case there's a double-dip recession 😉

What is a tarn?

Just above Littleboro, Gtr Manchester!

For the locals its the little hidden tarn on the trail coming down from the track that leads under the front of Blackstone Edge 😆

£350 for an engagement ring, no wonder it didn't work out.

If anyone finds a gold signet ring in south Devon, it's probably mine – although I lost it throwing a stick for the dog.

I try to think of it as a votive offering. 😥

If it is what you had to do to move on and know you were doing the "right thing", it's worth every penny.

Now, where my snorkel?

Rachel + Muddy Dwarf – a new STW couple in the making? 😀

Hope your life really picks up BTW

ta colin 🙄

Not everyone earns £30'000 per annum CHB – besides, she chose it.

Laughs at SimonRalli! 😆

Not sure Ms Muddydwarf would be particularly happy about that – then again… 😉

Muddy, my wifes engagment ring cost £110 when we were still students. I meant it in that tasteless STW way! Well done you for a clean break.

[mind she lost the stone out of the ring 3 months before our tenth wedding anniversary…. always thought that was suspect!].

Simonralli, you really don't know me, do you???

But you're a dwarf!

I thought the hobbits had all that disposing-of-the-Ring-of-Doom malarkey sewn up.

Ah, well things are maybe not so bad for you then Muddydwarf. Good stuff.

Allthegear – er no!

Well, it's a long way to Mordor! 😛

>Simonralli, you really don't know me, do you???

Bat for the other side ?

House feels a lot better anyway, damn thing's been sat there on the top shelf for 18 months & i didn't know what to do with it. Couldn't sell it, pawn shops only offered £20 etc so 'SPLASH' it was!

i flicked my wedding ring off the aguille du midi

Well, it's a long way to Mordor!

Yep, and now you need never go there to visit the in-laws. Job's a good 'un.

😆

What was wrong with £20? And technically if that's all you were offered then you only actually threw £20 away?

I took it down to the shops ages ago & got a few derisory offers.

Couldn't be bothered with the hassle of flogging it (plus the funny looks from the female staff members) so i lobbed it.

I hope nobody was near the bottom, that could have left a nasty bruise!
Never got up to L'aguille du midi, went up to the Bouisson Glacier instead. Long walk up and back. Did hear a ringing noise at one point, thought it was just my ears…

I like yer style. You romantic! obviously, in the right frame of mind, you'd get some cash for it. or give to me, and I'll get some cash for it!

I watched my g/f chuck her wedding ring in Stickle Tarn in 2000! Maybe there are loads in there ?

a tarn of treasure.

Really ? You must be souverners innit ? Strike a lite gor blimey guvner etc…

I can only ask "why?". Are there really that many superstitious people about!?

Other northern geographic features you may care to look up:
mountain, ghyll, beck, clough, fell, hause, thwaite, crag, pike etc

or you could continue to navigate the exciting contours of upturned shopping trolleys and Tesco car parks which the sarf appears to comprise 🙁

don't you think symbolism is important ?

yay! my heart beats to the drum of cymbalism!

Was she still wearing it?

…that way you'll always know where it is…

Not necessarily in coire, the one referred to above isn't 🙂
