A volunteer diver has described the “amazing” moment he retrieved the ring of a newly-engaged couple after they lost it in a lake.
Angus Hosking, a free-diver with Lake District Divers, found the ring Viki Patel had given to his fiancee Rebecca Chaukria just two days earlier.
The couple, from London, were on holiday near Ecclerigg by Lake Windermere in Cumbria, where Mr Patel finally got down on one knee after his proposal plans were delayed by almost two years due to the pandemic cancelling five holidays.
