A WOMAN’S friends have all faked amazement at her engagement ring despite having no idea whether it is impressive.  

26-year-old Kristine, not her real name, showed off the ring to her friends last night, all of whom imitated reactions they have seen in films.  

Doris 44, not her real name or age, said: “I’ve never looked at an engagement ring before, so I don’t have any points of comparison. So I just made this fake ‘o’ face that seemed to do the trick.  

“Apparently it has diamonds and sapphires in, and gold that is a number of carats. It wasn’t an especially high number, but I don’t know what gold goes up to. 

“Anyway I held her outstretched hand reverently with eyes wide, as if the ring was glowing with an unearthly power, and looked around to the other girls and they all slowly nodded, like we’ve seen how to on Sex in the City.”  

Edwin, not his real name, said: “The girls were all wowed by my ring. Which was reassuring, because I’m half-convinced I’ve made the wrong decision.”
