I just got some texts from my mum, which she followed up with a phone call so she could tell me about her morning.
I've mentioned before that her boyfriend/kind of fiance, "Bob," is a very, very wealthy man.
They were sitting in bed and Bob said, "hang on," and he went to his safe and came back with a ring box. Mum thought he was going to propose properly (he didn't, they are still sort-of-engaged). Mum opens the box to reveal a band with 7 good sized diamonds on it. Bob says, "Oh,wait a minute," goes back to the safe. This ring box is a large square emerald ring with large diamonds on either side. He then makes one last trip to the safe and returns with TWO boxes. One is a blue diamond, also square, with a large round clear diamond on each side. The final ring is a massive honking square diamond. It might have a smaller diamond on each side, I can't tell in the photo.
He also gave her the appraisal. They are valued at $100,000.
A bit later mum went into Bob's office, where the safe is, and there is money all over the floor. Bob threw it around while he was looking for the ring boxes. He then had trouble shoving it back in the safe. Mum reckons there was about a quarter million in there.
And was this an anniversary of some sort, or a birthday? Nope, just an ordinary Tuesday.
Un-freaking-believable.
