How many years have you and yours been married, or together, whichever applies to you? Today is our 48th wedding anniversary, heaven only knows how we`re still together, you don`t get that long for murder, and I`ve come pretty close to committing that at times!

Its our 38th anniversary today.

We met at Uni, in my all womens hall of residence actually. He also proposed in the same building, during the annual Hall Ball. Ah! The last of the great romantics!

Our Ruby wedding in October - going away with friends who are also celebrating their Ruby on the same day. Amazing really as I nearly walked out during year 1!

It chucked it down here yesterday, pompa, so it WAS an awful day - but I hope you and your good lady had a LOVELY day today! Happy anniversary! wine smile

We did thanks, our planned picnic was spent in our summer house watching the "Kings Speech". Still had our fresh crab & bottle of champagne. Didn't fancy this film, but knew Mrs. P would like it, it was so bad it moved me to tears. LOL.
We had breakfast at "Jimmy's Farm" excellent!, followed by a visit to a local walled garden, we love walled gardens.

Pete and I have been together for 20 years and are thinking of getting married soon. We're nearly 60. grin

harrigran Wed 24-Aug-11 23:39:49

Iv'e been married 44 years in October and I don't regret one day... and that was 14th October 1967.

Ariadne Thu 25-Aug-11 06:16:11

46 years on Sunday! And we've know each other for about 50. Youngest sun is celebrating his 40th birthday on Sunday, so all my children (3 + great DiLs and SiL) and grandchildren (4) will be there. How lucky am I? We started very young, with a baby, and people said it would never last.....

harrigran Thu 25-Aug-11 11:48:54

Best time to have your babies Ariadne when you are young, I did too. If my DGC wait as long as my DS to have a family he is going to be 70 when he gets to be a grandfather.

Jams Tue 15-Nov-11 00:46:42

27 years this year. . . and counting lol

MaggieP Tue 15-Nov-11 17:25:44

38 this year and the family are already suggesting we all spend a holiday together in a large villa/gite somewhere like France for our 40th! guess who will be paying?... However we love the idea as we had a successful week in Tuscany three years ago.
