News1: We have a car again O_o. It was about 3 blocks away. Small window broken. No tent. Going to invest in steering wheel lock soon so they can't take it for another jaunt any time soon ( Read more... )

Old plan: Pack car with food and people for long weekend in Grampians during which we get married and see many lovely people.

New plan: Find and murder the fucker who stole our car last night. With my tent in it.

Sub-plan: Never let Michael let insurance lapse again.

Find ring that is very nearly what I want as soon as I walk into first shop. *dingdingding I'm a winner* (until I discovered the price, omgwtf, but...still thinking about it.). So that was easy.
