29 Jul 2025 · 55m · 23 chapters

In short

A “special engagement” episode where Sophia and Brian recount how he proposed during their annual Mallorca trip, plus practical proposal tips (ring transport, writing a letter, filming, and “Find My Friends” settings). The episode also includes unrelated ad reads (Midi menopause care, Wayfair Halloween, CalShe prediction market, Olive & June gel nails).

Guest backgrounds

No guests are interviewed. The main speakers are Sophia and Brian (Brian appears via his story/tips). Other people are mentioned only as family/friends (e.g., Sophia’s mom, Chintzy, Lydia, Angie) and a jeweler (Pragnols / Emma).

Key claims

1,509 days between their relationship milestone and the proposal; the proposal was planned to land on that exact day despite a thunderstorm. Sophia says she “blacked out” and couldn’t eat breakfast, but the engagement letter helped her relive the moment.

Notable examples

Breakfast delivered in picnic-basket style; a parcel/letter titled “1,509 days”; ring hidden in a watch roll pouch; proposal video used to remember the moment; Sophia’s yellow-diamond preference discovered earlier at Pragnols.

Okay. I'll just ramble. And if I'm going on, you can just tell me to stop. Wow. Sit back, relax. Yeah, absolutely. I'm going to drink my story. Sorry. This was just not on the bingo card. I can't believe what's going on. I know. oh okay so we were going for me and brown were going on the annual majorca trip yeah and it's a trip that we kind of do every year we actually went to majorca together for the first time yeah when we'd only chintz remember well we'd only been dating i want to say like maybe two months yeah three maybe not even it was before your boyfriend and girlfriend it was before i remember asking him oh so when you go to malloc like are you gonna ask me to be your girlfriend and he was like i have something in mind so i remember it was quite soon because i remember like ringing my mom and being like oh this boy wants to go on holiday with me like i'm not sure like do you think i should go like yada yada yada and she was like yeah go like it will be great so i went and we had just like the best holiday and Brian asked me to be his girlfriend in Mallorca um and then every year since we've just always gone back because we've always just had like best holidays there best times it's just become like our place so last year when we were in Mallorca way back then Brian was saying because I've realized things now I've put pieces together that I didn't realize were being pieced.

17:50So last year when we were in Mallorca, because we always go out kind of for like my birthday week. And way back then, Brian was saying, you know, we really need to get the fam out here. Like let's arrange a family trip. Like it'd be so nice to bring them out here. Like we always tell them about it and speak about it. And we need to make the effort to like plan a family holiday. So I was just thinking like, yeah, sounds great. Can't wait. And it was really convenient because so my dad's birthday is two days before mine and I was oh my god perfect because it's my dad's 60th next year very special it will be my nephew Noah his first time abroad next summer so like all the stars were just like oh my god this is the perfect year to do like family trip so those seeds had been sown ages ago so that was just always the plan to do it up even he was teeing it up right last summer but even back then like it's not unusual it wasn't like oh my god our families are gonna like meet for the first time because like they hang out like i've been away with like his mom my mom my granny like the families have met quite a lot and it wasn't unusual to me that oh yeah the family's going the family's it wasn't like wait a second no something must be going down on this trip no like it wasn't it wasn't anything like it just felt like yeah like can't wait like get the family together like my mind really was like this holiday that is for dad this year like it's dad's 60th like great so that was always the plan so we're going to Mallorca we were going to do a few days on our own first in like our favorite hotel and then go and join the fam in the villa so we got there all excited holiday time um favorite holiday day of the year so we get to our hotel favorite hotel and we get to our room and I was like why are we like why are we here like why are they taking us this way like we've not been in these rooms before because it's quite a small hotel and there's only a certain there's very few like different levels of rooms it's not like that much choice right and this particular room we'd asked this is a long story sorry yeah we'd asked to see this room like the first time we visited this hotel like oh what's this room like and way back then like years ago we were like oh my god like we'll stay here one day like when we're like 50 like we'll stay in this room like we were like oh my god this is amazing so it's always been this like room that we want to stay in so I was like oh my god why are we why are we getting out here like what's happening and we were at this like special room and Brian was like happy birthday nice like this is your birthday present and I was like oh he's teeing it up so well I was like my god I can't believe it like we're in this room and also I'll say this is still like feeling like quite the norm not necessarily the surprise but like from like day one Brian is the organizer he always organizes the holiday the trip like everything like I especially the birthday trip especially the birthday trip like I'm not in charge of like booking anything so it wasn't like oh Brian's planned this whole holiday and I don't know anything like it was all just kind of like business as usual because he is the organizer of the pair so I was like oh my god can't believe it in this special room but still I'm just like oh well this is my birthday so like can't wait can't wait can't wait and he was just being really clever because he was saying like you know I know this year is kind of more about your dad but I really want you to feel like you've had like birthday fuss and like had your moment so like you know these few days are like for us so I just yeah like yeah birthday like can't wait yeah so this year it's not about you yeah like I just can't wait yeah so get there afternoon get ready for dinner great great great great great go out for dinner just at the hotel like favorite restaurant when we go to this hotel we like don't check out we just always eat at the hotel it's like our favorite place it's kind of like retreat vibes like you check in and you don't really leave until it's time to go so we go for dinner having a great time yep yep yep yep i'm not sensing nothing i'm not feeling nervous yeah because one of the questions was feeling like shift was the shiftiness did the energy change no he's a master at this i was just like great great great holiday holiday holiday anyway so we get back to the room that night after our first dinner and one thing we love and really look forward to at this hotel is breakfast time because the breakfast like we love breakfast like our favorite date is to like a breakfast date like breakfast like when we go to a hotel like on holiday especially we will make breakfast like last all day so like maybe we'll go at 10 like we'll still be there at half 12 like we're the last people at breakfast we we just love holiday breakfast and the amazing thing about this hotel is you they have a menu on your bed and you just tick it all like what you want like the night before like what time you want it leave it outside the door and then in the morning they like show up with these picnic baskets and like they lay it all out with like cutlery and it's just like such a nice part of the day like throughout the year we'll be like oh I can't wait for that breakfast like we just love it anyway so filling out all this menu and then Brian's like yeah like let's get a coffee like before breakfast as well like just like let's just sit on the step like soaking the view I'm like yeah like sounds great can't wait so we go to bed nothing like unusual wall like still not sensing anything then wake up the next day this is like this is the day so it's yeah it's 7 a.m and brian wakes me up fucking hell which is really unusual for us on holiday like usually on holiday like no alarms like sleeping in like whatever brian wakes up at 7 a.m and he is like bouncing off the walls he's like i've been awake since five like i'm so excited he was like we're here like can't believe it like this room like oh my god I can't wait for the day like and I was just like yeah oh my god like can't wait like it's gonna be great like we're on holiday like so excited and so then Brian goes to the like kind of the door where like the view is and the curtain and he has kind of like he like you know rips open the curtain like a hello holiday like vibe opens the curtain and it's like a thunderstorm outside it's like raining it's gray it's super dark it's stormy so obviously knowing what i know now brian was now getting stressed because he was thinking oh my fucking god i'm like i've planned to propose in a few hours like when does it ever rain in majorca in july like what the hell is happening like yeah oh my god what what am i gonna do so he internally was like having a bit of a meltdown but still i did not feel anything i was like oh my god this is super cozy like it's still early let's have a cup of tea it'll clear up like let's watch some netflix let's just get back into bed like read our books like whatever so i'm just having like a great time yeah anyway it then brian then falls back asleep i bet because he's been like bouncing off the walls like all night yeah so he falls back asleep and then i'm just in bed chilling reading my book and then i'm like oh shit it's 10 to 10 like it's like breakfast is coming at half past like

coffee arrives and he's like yeah we'll just have it on this step i'm like oh yeah lovely lovely lovely sat on the step again mind is still not sorry i'm just catching myself with this fail on in the viewfinder still just like great great great and then so then we sit down we're having our coffee and then Brian goes he was like oh you know if I could just like bottle this like moment and just be able to like step back into this moment I was like oh tell me about it like it's just the best isn't it like we're just soaking up like the view I'm still like oh my god this room like it's so special can't believe that and then Brian goes he goes so like how many days do you think we've been together for now and I was like I was like god I don't know I was like not sure maybe like she's not good at my a thousand I was I don't know more like a thousand and he was like I think it's been

26:581509 and I was like what I was like how do you I was like that's so specific like how do you know that still my brain is not really like there yet I'm just I'm just like how do you know that like that's so specific and then Brian Brian basically just gets very emotional Brian then just starts crying he then just starts crying and I'm then thinking like oh my god what's what's happening like what's wrong like my brain's going like a million miles an hour I'm like oh my god what's happening like what's happening like my brain like almost wasn't thinking I was just like oh my god what's happening like something happened something gone wrong like what's happening are you dying yeah I was like have we like have bad news from back home like what what is happening And also I was thinking because obviously your brain is going like a million miles an hour, but quick backtrack the week before we went on holiday, Brian was really ill.

28:01He was really ill. He was really poorly. And that week before I, in my head was being like, Oh, I'm like really worried for him that he's going to be ill on holiday. He's not going to get to enjoy it. Like the one trip, like we look forward to this every year. Like we've only got a few days at this hotel, like really want him to be able to like relax and enjoy. and I was thinking like oh typical like he's gonna be like feeling dreadful so then when he was emotional when he was crying I was also thinking like oh god maybe he just feels awful and he's been trying to hide it and he can't hide it anymore like I'm just thinking all sorts but obviously it's so quick like it's just going a thousand miles an hour and then I was like why are you like why are you crying like what's like why are you crying and that's when he was like because I'm gonna ask you to marry me and then like my I was like speechless like my jaw I was like oh my like like my brain like just like almost stopped working and like my jaw was just like to the floor and I was like oh my god oh my god oh my god like shaking like I'm literally shaking thinking about like trembling like I'm then like just crying like we're hugging I'm like oh my god I can't believe it like still my brain is being like really like oh my god almost like you know when you know when we were on stage with Cody Simpson okay Cody mentioned we were like looking at Cody like oh my god soak it in like soak it in like this is happening in front of you like remember this moment it was it was like that when he was then like on one knee and I was I was like, oh my God.

29:44Was he wearing shorts? Where did he have shorts? Well, this is another thing. So he was wearing short. This is part of Brian's tips. I've got some tips from Brian. So I'll add those on at the end. So he gets the ringer, he gets down on one knee and I'm in my head like, oh my God, like this is actually happening. Like brain, like fucking catch up, like lock in, like remember this moment, like screenshot it in your head, like this is happening. And then he's got the ring and then he's like, stand up. Cause I was still like sat down. I was like, what's happening? Like, oh my God. And then, yeah, then obviously like we were just like lots of tears like laughing like crying just like hugging like the adrenaline was just like I can't even imagine like my heart was beating so fast it's literally beating so fast it was just like it was just such a crazy like feeling like I just can't describe it um and we were both just then like freaking out like oh my god what's happening like can't believe it like just like shock like brain is like not like processing what's happening so that was kind of like that bit but then breakfast was kind of like about to arrive oh my god but I guess it's breakfast time did you feel sick could you eat I had no appetite for like days I was like I can't eat like my like I just like I don't know why I was just like excited like butterflies just like just so many thoughts like I was like oh my god I literally she can't eat this breakfast like I don't know what to do um so then breakfast arrived and Brian was like look I'll sort like just go and sort yourself out like I'm looking in the mirror like oh my fucking god I've just got engaged like what's happening I can't believe it and then breakfast is like laid out outside and there's this um package on like the table it's like this white like little parcel with like this pink bow on it and I was like oh my god like what's this and then I would don't know I was like maybe it's gonna be like a photo or like a book I don't really know what it was gonna be but then I opened it and it was a letter it was a really nice letter and the letter's titled 1 ,509 days and it's just like the most beautiful that I like I cry I read it last night and I was crying again like it makes me cry every time I read it it's just like so special and lovely and just like I'll have it forever it was so nice but that was also why you know when it was raining that morning Brian was getting really stressed because he was like it has to be today it's 1 ,509 days like the ink is on the page like it has to be today like it has to be now I didn't even think about and in the letter it was like if everything's gone to plan and we'll be like and like having our breakfast like it all like kind of like and I was like oh my god so the letter yeah so then like the letter just like set me off all over again and then but the letter is a nice touch yeah and he knows that like I love like we I feel like we say it on the pod like you just want a card with a paragraph in like he knows that like a special letter I keep all my birthday cards I can never throw cards away like anniversary cards anything like they're all in my bedside drawer and just he knew like how much I would like love to have a letter so got that and then that breakfast even though I couldn't like stomach anything like I couldn't even drink my orange juice it was so fun because I was now like we were almost like catching up on like the past like year when like all these things that he hasn't been able to tell me like ring designing and like when he like asked my dad like all these like different stories and like funny things that have happened and like things where like so this letter he brought it home one day and he was like you asked me I don't know if you remember but you asked me when I walked in the door like what's what have you got like what's that because he came home with this like brown envelope he'll be sick and he just said like documents and apparently I was just like whatever like don't care like didn't ask anything else about it I was like right documents but he was like oh my god I was like you know you literally saw me walk in I had this letter here like blah blah blah blah and we just like and he had all these like amazing stories to like tell me that he was like it's been so weird like not being able to tell you this like whilst it's been happening like I've been doing like all these big things and like I haven't been able to tell you like it's been so strange so then yeah we just had like big like big big chats chats at breakfast and then like all day and then yeah it was just kind of surreal so then we were at that hotel for like we still had like two more nights at that hotel and then um we were just like calling different people like but the thing was then obviously your my first instinct was like oh my god I've got to call my mom but it was like oh no wait like I was like oh my god this is so amazing like the family's coming out in a few days like this is such a great coincidence and obviously Brian was like Brian was like it's not a coincidence like I planned it this way and I was like oh my god like it just it wasn't like piecing together in my head so then I had to kind of be quite like I was like, oh my God, well, it was actually really nice because it really longed it out.

35:11So like we could tell like, because I couldn't tell any of my family yet. It was almost like I had to wait a few days to tell them. So we were just like calling different friends and like reacting with them and like seeing their like, you know, like, oh my God, I can't believe it. Like reliving it all with them. And then we then, yeah, went to the villa on the Saturday and like told all the family so it really like spread it out it felt like it lasted for like ages doing it at the start of the holiday because some people do it at the end I know and then it's like also they would have been a nervous wreck the whole time I guess I know and then it's like you don't get time to celebrate on the holidays actually perfect I know and then obviously I realized Brian was like I've not slept for like weeks oh my god and he'd been so ill oh and he was like I was just so stressed like I wanted it to be perfect for you like I'm creating like this moment of like our lives like it's in my hands like I was just overthinking everything I was thinking like what if like you I don't know like what if this happens blah blah blah um and he got a video of the whole thing and it's so funny there's a video of him so the day before there's a video on his camera roll the day before when I was in the shower of him like setting up like setting up the test shot and he like walked out like sat on the step like sat on the step for a while like got on one knee this video it's the best video and then he was like I had to delete it and delete it from recently deleted he's like I was worried that you were going to see it so yeah it was just That's like Instagram girlfriends when you've got a picture of your boyfriend in the spot, you know, before you get the picture.

Because true luxury is in the little things. right tell us brian's top tips for a seamless perfect proposal so brian this is when brian's get your brian's to go listen now there's not many but brian's tips were also where was he hiding the ring okay so this is a tip like also packing holiday yeah so this was the tip brian said he was like it was so much easier like transporting the ring getting the ring like you know transporting it hiding it yada yada yada when I realized that it didn't need to be in a box right so what was it in he had transported it almost in like a earring like pouch and then he'd put that in like a watch roll like a watch case right so it was hidden in there but then when he actually asked me obviously it wasn't in the pouch he just kind of like pulled it out of his pocket and it was just there right it wasn't in a box so he was like that kind of took a lot of the stress out because I was like how he was thinking how am I going to hide this box in my pocket like it's gonna be there yeah and like how am I going to transport like what if she sees it sticks out like a sore thumb yeah so he was like you don't need like get rid of the box like not get rid of it you don't need the box so that was good so in a little padded pouch a little padded pouch.

40:05Yeah. Obviously don't present it in the pouch. Take it out of the pouch before, but you know, like transportation wise, also way less suspicious, like not very noticeable, like quite small. And he also really recommended writing the letter. Yeah. Because he said that it took a lot of the pressure because he basically knew that like he wasn't really like going to be able to get a word out. He knew like it was going to be like emotional blah blah and he was like it just really took the pressure off of like saying the perfect like speech that you've kind of like planned in your head because I knew that it was all written down in this letter so he really recommended writing the letter because it took the pressure because everything you feel is in the letter yes and it's just like the emotions in case like emotions take over and you can't get your words out and it's like because the moment is like it's just so much like and I don't even think I would have absorbed like a speech anyway I was just like blacked out almost so yeah he also really recommended writing the letter nice what else did he say yeah oh he also said that because apparently again I don't even remember this but this is one of the stories he said he was like do you remember when you called me and asked why my find my friends was off and I was like no not really so obviously I've got we've got each other on find my friends and I mostly use it for like knowing how long Brian's going to be till he gets home like I watch him on his journey home I'm like making dinner I'm like right he's going to be home soon and it was obviously I don't even remember it was one night or one like evening and it was like wasn't loading or so like no location found or something and I don't know I just thought oh maybe it's phones died or I don't know I don't I don't I don't even remember it but I called him and I was like oh why should you find my friends off like how long till you get home sort of thing and again he was just like oh I don't know like it should be on like I don't know like maybe I've got I literally don't remember the conversation and he was like do you remember when you asked me that and I was like yeah no not not really I can't remember that and he was like yeah I forgot to turn it back on and I was like shit because he'd been at the jewelers right and he was like shit like oh like I it was kind of it kind of went over my head like I didn't really remember it but yeah he was like if you turn it off make sure to turn it back on again yeah and he's thinking that you're getting all suspicious in all sorts yeah where and I but I was he's so in his head he's so in his head like oh my god like blah blah blah yeah so the tip is make sure you find my friends is off for when you're at the jewelers buying the ring but make sure you turn it back on again right do the letter yeah um get a good check the the shot check the angle get the shot because it's very important and you know what i will also say just eat like because brian knew that i would want the moment like captured because even when we go on holiday i'm always like oh i'm going to film this for memes like you know just to like whatever like memes memes memes yeah and um he knew that I would like want to have the video and he wanted the video as well but I will also say it's so amazing to have the video because it in a weird way kind of like helps you remember what happened because yeah I like we both said like we just blacked out like the video is almost like it helps you remember like oh yeah then we did that like if we didn't have the video obviously i would still remember it but it's so nice like being able to watch it and then you can also show family like oh my god this is what happened like you show your mates like oh yeah that's what remy said about her wedding day she said she completely blacked out didn't remember a thing but then because she's got the videos yeah she can almost remember but yeah she can't remember do you know what i mean yeah so it makes sense yeah so i would really yeah recommend to bryans to try and set up a good shot a good shot if you can they can they can they can do or get someone to get someone to sneakily yeah depends where it is yeah to film it and i'm trying to think what else he said i think he just kind of said like just make sure it's like right for you guys like whatever it like is like that was like our favorite moment of the day like yeah just us two like it's exactly like what i would have wanted and it's what he wanted as well he was like you're you have to be like you know like yeah this is like your kind of like creation it has to resemble resemble both of you yeah yeah and brian's need to make sure that they get that their girlfriend is a silver or a gold girl yeah oh my god because i've seen so many tiktoks that's true of silver girls getting gold rings and gold girls getting silver rings and like that is like one rookie mistake that's a rookie error isn't it that's a rookie error so brian's make sure you know you may not think it's a big deal do you know what i mean oh yeah but it is a big deal but it is yeah we've got a fiance amongst us now i'm a fiance so you're just gonna soak it all in yeah oh that was the other thing i saw as well yeah um someone asked me if i chose the ring yes someone asked me if i chose it yeah or like how did how did how did he do the ring what you wanted yeah so i would say yes and no so basically we we have this really special jewelers pragnols shout out emma shout out yeah she's lovely and like Brian's got like watches from there and like my bracelets like it's like special occasion like like Brian's got me like like when he told me he loved me got me this bracelet and like just like when we got Australia tour he got me this one like just like special moments we've gone to this jewelry shop and so we've like gone there over the years and like I've always kind of like tried rings on there kind of like for like you know you like you know when you're there like emma's like oh put this on like put this on and it's like these huge things and it's like this is 1.2 million pounds it's like oh my god it's almost like it's just like cool like it's just like you play dress up yeah and um we were in there ages ago maybe like a year ago maybe a year and a half ago yeah and brian we were like just looking and whatever and Brian saw this like yellow diamond like this yellow ring it wasn't this one but it was it was a yellow one yeah and he was like oh my god that's so nice and I was oh my god yellow that's so nice I've never seen that before and I tried it on I was like oh my god I love the yellow like we were both saying it just looks like a pot of like honey like it just looks gold like your jewelry's gold like it looks so nice like so ever since so then I was like oh I really want yellow so he knew from then that I'd wanted a yellow diamond so that he knew but I'd never really like said about like preference styles or shapes but I think he knew I would just want something simple simple and gold and perfect yeah so kind of yes kind of no he had direction yeah um which is nice which is yeah because i mean you don't want to know exactly what you're getting but also to not go it to go in blind yes and then it'd be completely not right i know it's a bit of a process like designing it takes months i had no idea all these different like yeah anyway so gorgeous so grown up can you believe it can't believe it i know it's just oh and also telling chintz yeah so weirdly chintz was one of the last people to know which sounds so strange but basically because i had to kind of be strategic because obviously i was like oh my god like need to phone everyone but so it was on the wednesday and because my family weren't arriving till the Saturday I was like oh wait hang on like if I tell chintz I'm gonna have to tell Lydia like straight after because those two are on like FaceTime all day I was like she's not gonna be able to not tell her so I'm gonna have to tell Lydia right after I was like they're then most likely just probably gonna tell Angie because like it's big news like you know they talk all the time like Angie's then gonna find out and I was then just getting really panicked that like Angie wouldn't realize that like my mum didn't know yet or like I was like god it's only Wednesday can Angie hold it until Saturday like I don't know like I know you know she might wait till Saturday but all if she does it on Saturday morning and she doesn't arrive till the evening like I was just like I just felt like it was gonna get away from me and I was like oh my mum really cannot find out through anyone else like I really have to like wait so we could tell like some friends that weren't linked and then yeah I had to wait till Saturday and then my mum's flight got delayed and I was like oh my god I'm like dying like to tell my people um so then yeah they arrived like late on Saturday night so told them and then I FaceTimed you and then we added Lydia in and then yeah but that was so weird like you would think you would be like the first I was just watching I just got on Netflix and it was late and I'd put on um the poop cruise on Netflix which I still need to finish because I didn't finish it because I was disturbed yes I was putting on the poop cruise and it was like not the vibes at all and then Sue was like can I FaceTime you and I was like yeah yeah you are like I'm literally watching the poop cruise and then I couldn't believe it I was in shock I was in complete shock because I had not an inkling I didn't have an inkling did we all like seriously like she I just left her to enjoy a holiday I know and then I just could not believe it like seriously I was like I didn't have words I was in shock I know like I didn't I know and it's so weird because I feel like everyone asks me like did you know like and I was like fucking hell no like no I was so shocked and I I feel like people like maybe on the internet or like outside looking in you're kind of like oh well like we've been together for like you know four years like you know like the past even the past few holidays we've been on people have been like this is it like you're gonna get engaged and I've always been like guys you've not got no idea like i'm not getting engaged like i'm probably like i'm gonna have kids first like we're not really gonna do that yet like it was just so not on the radar like we'd always speak about like marriage wedding getting engaged babies like yada yada like big like kind of picture life like stuff but i don't know i just it just didn't feel like it was because some people know on the radar exactly when it's gonna happen like next summer it's gonna happen and you know what's so funny by their boyfriends brian said like he's like i've always known that it would be this summer like i've always and i was like what like i just had no idea like even like all our friends and like people that know us like one of our friends he was like it's not unexpected like you know you guys made free like whatever but he was like but i'm so shocked he was i always thought you guys would be like you know have your kids like maybe like get married when you're like 50 and like be really like not like I don't know like he was just like I was like yes same like I just was so it was just so not on the radar like at all which I understand people are kind of like surely it was like I feel like it was on other people's radar more than it was on ours yeah we were just so shocked that's nice that's how you want it I know I know I'm so happy that like obviously I'm so happy like I was so happy but I was just so like oh my god like I can't I just like literally couldn't believe it and it's it all just still doesn't feel like I should have got my digi cam took some digi pictures of you I've literally forgot the digi it's just it's yeah it's crazy but I was so shocked and I wasn't like everyone is so shocked yeah I guess even if you probably know it's coming you would still be shocked in the moment yes there's that moment of just like oh my god it's happening you don't know when you don't know where you don't know how yeah the shock of the brain said actually which i thought was interesting that i've never really thought about but he said he felt like yeah this would be the last year that it would be a real surprise and he was what until you were like i'm waiting not necessarily waiting yeah but he was just thinking i don't know in his mind he just thought i felt like this was this the last summer that it would be like a real shock.

53:25He was like, I would worry in like another summer and another summer you would kind of be, it would be on your mind. Like, oh, maybe. Like it wasn't even a thought this summer. But he was like, I would worry. I was worried that it was going to become like a, oh, maybe it will be this. And then you're wondering and you're thinking. Yeah, yeah. That's smart from him. He's a very smart Brian. He's smart. Okay. Plan to perfection. he's very smart he thought of every single detail i know he really did didn't he yeah so let's do a round of applause for brian oh i have one more tip yeah okay i'll stop a brian tip just a just an engagement in general right right because it was something that we both did yeah and it was so nice so if so basically obviously we were on holiday so it's a bit different but went on holiday did that got engaged and we both just like for days apart from like calling like friends and stuff we both just went on like airplane mode yep for like three days yeah and it was so nice just to like we would just like leave our phones inside like kind of be on airplane mode like we just felt we were so like in our own like like bubble is the word like so like detached from like what was going on like in the outside world and it just really like allowed us to just like soak it all in and just like be in the be in the moment be present yeah so I would also really encourage like other people if you're in a similar position where you're kind of on holiday and you can kind of like log off from work to just like go on airplane mode and just like be in the yeah be in the moment because it's so special yeah so you're not that would be my tip yeah that would be my tip and also I would also say like try and make it last like try and not call everyone on the one day because it was so nice like not being able to do that and like having to wait to tell people it actually made it like really like drag it out last yeah milk it yeah so that would be my tip she's got some good tips that would be my tip wow and I also just have to say thank you so much for everyone's lovely messages they've been so nice and like we've been we've been in bed like reading them every night and we were both like really overwhelmed with just like we couldn't we were like oh my god like what's going on um we've like read them all and my dms and comments they've just been so lovely it's been so so special so thank you so much for anyone who's sent us a lovely message that's really nice new chapters new chapters new beginning and she's 27 now she's 27 now too i can't believe my god a proper grown-up i love everyone okay we've done it well done that was a good storytelling from sophia i hope i didn't miss anything out i don't think i did i feel like it was quite detailed you did it from the heart yeah i hope so yeah you did it hopefully i gave people what they wanted all the details you did right should we have a sip of over yes now i feel like we can approach the podcast with new wisdom yeah absolutely she we're gonna we're gonna get everyone's problem sofia needs all that sofia has to present us with all the answers like are you joking like we need um like she's done it like she's engaged cheers cheers guys yay we forgot star of the week has to be brian yeah we should get him actually a proper toast to brian we should we should get him a plaque a proper certificate a proper gold um fucking yes a trophy a trophy he would like that yeah okay cheers brian thanks for watching everybody oh thank you so much for watching guys a very special episode yes we will see so much i guess we're back to regular schedule programming next week we will see you thank you to my gorgeous set up my presence thank you guys for listening we love you we love you see you next week
