    Tell her to take a deep breath, and do it inch by inch. It's the only way...

    Maybe later ... she’s got work this morning ...

    So sad ... her Lovely Hub had splashed out on fillet steak last night to celebrate getting the ring back from the jeweller ☹️

    So sorry to hear about your ring @WonkyWomble Firstborn lost her engagement ring and had  no idea where.  They took the sink trap out and searched everywhere.  In the end she gave up and claimed for it on the insurance and bought another one. 
    Years later Merri came in from the garden and showed her mum something she had found in the garden.  It was the ring.  Merri wasn't even born when it was lost.

    Poor Wonky, I hope she finds it. I lost my wedding ring once when gardening. My daughter found it on the gravel path 2 years later.

    I’ve swept the terrace, done a bit of weeding and a bit of dusting.
    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    Don’t think they had it insured ... it wasn’t an expensive stone ... but it was a very special one with extra special significance so the stone is irreplaceable.   Fingers crossed 🤞 but to find the stone without the ring ...

    I am so hoping that you find it @WonkyWomble. You must have a chance seeming you know you lost it in a certain part of the garden. Be methodical and maybe use a paint brush or similar. 
    My original engagement ring was stolen and although I have another one (different) I loved my original for so many reasons.

    it's just the stone, not the ring.
