Near miss…

Back in 2017, we stood just metres apart, each photographing The Blade installation in Hull city centre—completely unaware of the future we'd one day share.

Our first messages...

Our first conversation began with a shared love of board games—Ethan asked about favourites, and Ticket to Ride sparked an instant connection. That night we played our first game!

Hey, it says on your profile you like boardgames.... What's your favorite board game 😊?

Hey Ethan! Thanks for matching. I do, I have a great love for a game called Ticket To Ride! Are you into board games too?

Yeah I love boardgames (I know that's probably makes me sound very geeky!) Awww I love Ticket To Ride! I've got the original and the Europe versions!

Haven't played it for a while because some people in the friend group got a little too competitive blocking people finishing routes... 😅

I don't think it sounds geeky at all - it's nice to have interests!

He Proposed

On New Year's Eve 2025, Ethan proposed to Deborah at the National Railway Museum in York — just the two of them, before opening time, in the cabin of the legendary Mallard.
