My friend was very keen on a new fireman to the station, so I went in to ‘have a look’! I instantly thought he was a bit fat and had horrible long sideboards! He doesn’t even remember the occasion!
Subsequently I was out on a date and DH saw me and fancied me and thought what an idiot the boy was that I was out with, so he manoeuvred a double date the next week with my friend and I but to her disappointment he wanted me! We got engaged 6 weeks later and married within a year, still both only 19! I have lost that friend!
