Leap year, baby! part 2
I was going to help all the ladies with a proposal in form but am really annoyed to find that neither my Debretts nor my Enquire Within offers any template at all.In fact the Enquire Within jumps straight from Balls & Evening Dress - where the last instruction is "An introduction to a lady at a ball does not entitle the gentleman to bow to her on a future occasion, unless she first recognises him" to Marriage Arrangements. I appreciate the book dates back to a more modest time (1899) but good grief.
So here we go, guv.
It would, er, make me the happiest woman on Earth, er, if you would, you know, *loosens collar* eh what?
This is harder than I thought it would be. It's leap year, okay? Want me to spell it out? Sheesh. Fill in the gaps.
Phew. But I couldn't have you getting through leap year without at least one.
There you go, girls. Or you could make up your own, of course.
