    Yep, I have Portal though I'm not very good at it. Or most games for that matter.

    It's entirely your decision Beef, but if you really want to be with her for the rest of your lives, then Italy has to be a wonderful, romantic location to pop the question.

    No....any man who describes his GF in the context of shacking up is far too young.

    It's a saying ha. We live together already. But have my doubts about going to the next level at this moment of time.

    Yes, but suggests you lack enthusiasm. Don't do it to please anyone else.

    Mate, she'll make the decision for you and you won't even know she's done it.

    When it's time you will know.....don't let parents persuade you into making the decision for you.

    If you have a doubt it is a no no!! You will always be looking at someone thinking the grass is greener.

    If you don't know after 2 years don't do it, it's not fair on her. Don't string her along for too long though if you have no intention of going to the next level.

    My friend from Reading is staying with me over the festive season. She had the World Service on yesterday morning when the sports review came on. And who should I hear but the best football pundit ever ....Jimmy Armfield. HIs comments are so measured, not opinionated. Love the man!

    Denis Law was interviewed yesterday:

    Q: Do you think your United team would beat the present team?
    DL: Yes, probably one-nil!
    Q: One-nil? Why do you think it would be so close?
    DL: Well, most of us are over seventy now...

    You sound as though you've got major doubts, Beefy so I think the answer to your own question is a pretty definite "no".

    If you have to go on a football forum to ask whether you should propose, you definitely shouldn't!
