Great thread. Great way to reward the misses.
Classy suggestion by G and nice execution Matt.

What a wonderfully happy thread.

Well done Gerardo, thinking outside of the box for your buddy Matt for which I'm sure he was rewarded handsomely

Great execution Matt you old romantic !

This thread is an excellent reminder that we should all make that extra bit of effort for our loved ones. G's suggestion cost nothing but made your wife's day!

Matt - kudos to you for getting your wife to pose for a wrist shot. You're a very lucky man! My wife would just give me a funny look!
