Marry me, Elaine


Rest assured you weary-hearted people out there, romance is still alive. While Henry and I were taking a stroll this morning and enjoying the first sunny day we’ve had in a week, I spotted some skywriting that was bound to make a few Melbourne men anxious. It took a while, but eventually ‘Marry me, Elaine, I ♥ u’ was written across the blue - I sure hope Elaine didn’t miss it. I bet there are some chaps out there who want to shoot the mystery man for such a grand gesture, as every romantic lass yearns for their own Romeo to dish out a showstopper like that. Guys should realise one skywriting proposal would get a lifetime's worth of romance out of the way in one hit, you could never be made to feel guilty again for forgetting Valentine's Day.  Just out of interest I investigated what it costs to get your proposal lifted up there where love belongs, and it will set you back about $4500… It’s pretty steep, but I reckon you’d guarantee yourself a ‘Yes’ with that level of effort. Who knows, maybe Elaine will respond via the sky as well: ‘Sorry John, I’ve met someone else…’
