He was adamant that he wanted to do it there even though the tide was coming in! Lloyd pretended he wanted to take a picture, and I was panicking saying I could see the sea coming in and the waves were getting closer. He got down on one knee and asked the question. I literally burst out laughing and forgot to say yes! I eventually did, looked at the ring on my finger, grabbed my things and shouted for the dog to come quickly and left Lloyd to get the camera and everything else. The lifeguards were that concerned that they raised the alarm and were shouting over the tannoy for us to come back to land. We made it back to strangers cheering and clapping. We had sandwiches and champagne on dry land and enjoyed the view. It was a lovely surprise even though I knew Lloyd was up to something as he kept talking about the sandwiches all week and tidying the house!"
