Bowled over by love...
A friend of mine currently cohabits with a girl we vaguely moved in the same circles as at Uni, and recently revealed that he's contemplating a proposal.

It's a far cry from the first time they met, back when we were callow youths, and had been drinking all day.

- He tried to chat her up by claiming to be 'an athlete. I've got a body of steel'
- She said he looked like a wimp
- He proved her wrong by grabbing her around the knees and lifting her up as high as he could... forgetting we were in a low-ceilinged bar
- Her head hit the ceiling with a sickening crack, and he put her down and did a runner (don't judge me, I wanted to stay and help but her friend told me to fuck off)

The next time they met was in a pub in London several years later, when she bumped into him and said 'Aren't you that cunt who knocked me out?'
And he said 'Yeah - can I buy you a drink?'

Worked out well in the end...
