> [@amanset](#): > > Shit, I’m coming up to six months with my girlfriend and this has been on my mind a lot, but I was thinking it was too soon. And there aren’t even any kids involved, the only issues is that she really likes her place, I really like mine and that she’s a fair bit younger than me, so I don’t want to freak her out by pushing for things too quickly. You could do worse than bringing it up in very close to those terms. 🙂 ---

I thought they were just trying to put a bill through (that will very likely succeed) but it’ll take till 2015 to become law. though I do like the idea of loads of gay couples eloping to gretna. ---
