Rating: G

A young gentleman, too shy to ask his sweetheart for her hand in marriage, requested the young lady accompany him on a walk in Regent’s Park.  Once there he took his place in the bandstand and tap danced his proposal in Morse code.  We are delighted to report she happily accepted and a date has been set for the wedding.

That is romantic. Does the young lady work in a telegraph office? Hence the familiarity with Morse code..?

Indeed she does. This was how the young gentleman first made her acquaintance. He sent several telegrams to his confused family before he could pluck up courage enough to ask her to walk out with him.
