Lovely ring Saz.

Are you wearing Shellac on your nails?

Just normal nail varnish Erin

Beautiful engagement ring, Saz.

lovely ring Saz 

Awww Saz, that's a lovely ring

That picture made me reach for my hand cream ... I am ashamed of my wrinkly ole hands after seeing yours

Love the ring Saz 

I went for the platinum solitaire too (not a square diamond though... a round one)

timeless 

Like Sooz ...   I still love mine..   I still admire mine (especially when the spotlights in the kitchen make it sparkle at me )

That is one gorgeous ring Saz! Classic! 

Mine's Sapphire and Diamond, with fancy shoulders.

Actually mines a round diamond but set in 4 corners so it looks square. I'm always looking at mine too - even after all these years 

Lovely ring! I can see why you cant wait to get it back

lovely ring Saz, very much like the one I had   

I still haven't heard anything! Why isn't it back yet *wails* 

This has been said many times over the past week

Thank you everyone I really like simple, classic stuff so I'm veh happy

rexi, the comment about the hand cream made me laugh, I thought my hands looked awful close up like that

Pah! You missed a trick there love. Look at what I would've gotten you

that's brilliant! I'd imagine difficult to get a pair of gloves on over it though

Saz it's gorgeous.

Thanks Cinds

I'm starting to worry the jewellers have forgotten about me

Hahaha, I'm the same. Mines platinum with a princess cut diamond, but the band  kind of shoulders along the sides of the stone so it sits at a slight angle.

I know how you feel, mine had to go back and it seemed to take forever.  Be worth the wait when you get it back and spend the next few weeks living your life using your left hand.

you don't think Rawky's bribing them do you?

That sneaky fecker!!

They gave me a sort of receipt and it says it would be completed by the 1st, so tomorrow. I think if I haven't heard from them tomorrow I'll pop in and see if they can tell me how much longer it will be

edit. just saw the left handed bit. I think if I tried to be a lefty, I'd never get anything done My left hand is bloody useless

Nice one Saz....best of luck 

But from tomorrow very beautifully adorned none the less.

Even better, means people will have longer to admire your ring while you slowly fumble your way through every day tasks.

Sometimes I take off my wedding and eternity ring just to wear the engagement ring on it's own - although it's a nice 'set' - on it's own it's lovely (and I can pretend to be eighteen again)

What a silly old moo I am 

It's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack I picked it up last night I'm so excited *sparkles*

Oooooooh what an exciting day ...........off you go and sparkle Saz!

Hoorah!! 

   put that away, you're blinding me!    

Enjoy flashing...! 

fnar fnar!

I'm not sure if it still feels a little loose... but I'm not used to wearing rings so I'm not sure how it's supposed to feel When I went in to get it altered I tried two sizes: 4 1/2 and 4 3/4. The 4 1/2 seemed too tight, like it would feel like it was cutting in when my hands were warm so I went for the 4 3/4

You might have to have it made smaller Saz... 

Don't worry about it feeling like it was cutting in when your hands are warmer (or when you put on a pound or two)..     after a while the ring becomes a part of you..   & you get a ring groove on that finger... 

I haven't been able to get my engagement & wedding rings off since I got married 

Yeah, it definitely feels too loose now so I think it's going to have to go away again. I'm gutted, I just got it back! Today was the first day I could wear it

I was saying to mam that I can't have it only fitting when my hands are warm as they're cold 40%+ of the time

Funnily enough, all through my childhood (and right up to when she got pancreatic cancer) my mum could never get her rings off. In the childish way you do, I just assumed that it was something that happened as you got older. However it would seem that that is NOT a given. After 25+ years of marriage I am still waiting (not really) for the time to come when I can't get my rings off! (Though I do have 'ring grooves'.)

I have ring grooves and depending on my weight they can be loose or tight. Very uncomfortable and tight on the third finger of my right hand though!

Well, I went back into the jewellers on the way home and explained what was happening. I tried on the smaller size and it really did feel too tight when my hands were warm, so I think it might be uncomfortable when they're hot The girl also did say that a day isn't really long enough and I should give it over the weekend to see. So I did, and it was maybe just a case of getting used to it, I never wear rings usually, so I'm not sure how tight they're supposed to be really I'll see what my mam thinks next weekend

Quite right  Sensible girlie - mums always know best - would you have a word with my daughter
