Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

My old fella had it right.

An engagement ring, or an A35 (old Austin car for the pups of the org). She decided transport was more important at the time. 20 years later she was calling him a mean old git for never having bought her an engagement ring.

The one fitter where i worked has promised us 3 apprentices if one of us gets married he's hitting us around the head with a baseball bat. Luckily my dad will kill me first.

Get out your 1/4 inch drive socket set (the wee one with the sockets about the same thickness as fingers) and try her existing rings on the sockets until you find the diameter socket with the best fit, then take that socket to the jewellers and tell him that's her ring size. He'll laugh his head off, but it works.

Alternatively if you can pinch a ring when she won't notice, the jeweller will measure it on a taper for you and tell you her size.

If there's any doubt get a size too big, easier and cheaper to cut and make a ring smaller, than add more gold to make it bigger.
