It's the most valuable present I've ever bought before. I'm sending it in the post (registered) tomorrow. It's for her 21st. It's a single diamond on the end of a white gold chain. The whole thing sparkles under the light. But it's fairly understated so she'll be able to wear it day-to-day. I'm going to be eating baked beans for the rest of the month but I don't care. I can't wait till she opens it.

In other good news, my star is rising quickly at work. They gave me a five pound voucher today I was able to redeem at the bottle shop for six cans of beer (pints). They hinted there was more where that came from. I've only got one can left.
