Straight from the mines of Moria

On Saturday afternoon we collected Jon's wedding ring from Max the jeweller in Hebden Bridge. He had done the most beautiful job and we couldn't be happier. What makes it all the more perfect is that the sale of Mum's turquoise ring and earrings all but paid for it, meaning that Mum has given Jon his ring. So we will both be wearing rings that have come from her. We both liked Max enormously from the moment we met him, recommended to us by G we knew we were on the right track when this twinkly eyed Gimli lookalike popped his head over the counter and said hello to us. That and the mutual beard respect between him and Jon, I couldn't think of anywhere more perfect.
