I'm out of ideas 
We went out and and she tried everything on, finally picked one. The guy that resizes them was away but it would only take 30 min. Fantastic!
I had the idea of proposing on the start line of a hill climb we were doing last weekend, lots of people, press and TV cameras. She would have hated it but loved it at the same time. Plus we get to drive off into the distance soon after.
The only problem was the 30min to resize, turned into 2 weeks after he broke the ring and had to start from scratch. But as an apology he is fitting bigger stones.
But this meant it wasn't ready for the hill climb.
I had an idea something like this was going to happen so I had a backup plan.
We have wanted a dog for years and were very close to getting one, we had asked the landlady (we are renting) she said yes. We fenced the garden and fitted a new gate, and have been in touch with a breeder and met the dog we want.
So my idea, ring in box tied with ribbon to the new dogs collar. She calls the dog and bingo!
Only problem is we got back on Monday to a little note from the landlady saying she had changed her mind, I went around to ask her to reconsider and she won't. (bull s
t reasons)
So right at this moment I still have no ring, no dog and no fking idea
To top it off, we are both busy in different directions after next weekend. I'm running a rally she is up in Yorkshire, then she heads over to HOYS for a week.

She knows you're going to propose as she's chosen the ring. You just want an idea on a way to hand it over?
It'll be no surprise to her?
This. If she knows it's going to happen then just let her slip her finger into your ring and be done with it.She knows you're going to propose as she's chosen the ring. You just want an idea on a way to hand it over?

Didn't you read the OP? The jeweller broke his ring by being too rough.It's more a case of why try to create some huge surprise statement when it's not going to be a surprise?
She picked the ring.

Very confusing too... I would ditch her if shes like that with a resizer as shes gonna be 'resized' before you get to her...

I'll second that. Bit strange to be honest.She knows you're going to propose as she's chosen the ring. You just want an idea on a way to hand it over?
