Default Today I am .........35 years married

Met when I was 18 and she 17, married at 21 and 20.
Goodness knows how we got together. We met via Venture Scouts and just clicked.
We lived 80 miles apart and 35 years ago driving up and down the M3 and the A road before the M3 was completed, 80 miles in an A35 Countryman or a Hillman Husky was a long way

With her, I have fulfilled some of my and I cant think of the right word, dreams, ambitions something along those lines. I grew up, got married, own house and 2 children.

Never a hit with the girls but this very good looking girl hitched her wagon to me. Friends were always shocked when the met her how good looking she was. One workmate told me how he had eyed her up as she walked towards him before finally getting from the hem of her dress to her face and realising who she was.

We have grown up together, laughed together and cried together.

Many congratulations - I think you have a choice of buying your beloved either coral (the old fashioned gift) or jade (the modern day version).
Then you can start saving for the rubies at 40 years

Our daughter's put down for me is "dad, how did you ever pull a cracker like mum?!"
