Tec , I'm sure that back then couples didn't always marry , no one would have known would they , especially if the family set up home away from their original families .

:-D I really am off now , sleep well .

I was just thinking that LInda , so I shall also say Good night .

Sue I hope you have a good day x

Amanda - I no longer think that "tying the knot" is all that important as it used to be.

It's a very modern thing not to - if you are truly committed to each other - does a piece of paper make any difference?

Just my opinion on the subject.

I don't think my maternal grand parents were ever married. There is no evidence of it. Even Linda couldn't find any

Goodness it is late, I had better turn in, goodnight everyone

Tec , I'm sure the Duchess sees you as her Knight in shining armour really :-)

Probably, Amanda :-)

Sue, if I remember rightly your Aimee is about the same age as our Daisy ( getting on for 9 ? ) , very sassy indeed , our Daisy can flounce and put her parts on if she is in a mood :-|

I think the Duchess deserves a medal..........

Valour in the face of adversity

or

Courage beyond the call of duty :-)

imagine being married to me for over 50 years - poor woman :-D

Tec , I sometimes wonder if we would have made it this far if we had actually ever tied the knot :-S lol

22 years is to be congratulated too, Amanda :-)

Aimee is gorgeous but she can be an imp. She's been a little naughty at school too but they seem to have sorted that out.

Linda , yes , I'm younger than springtime ......lol

22 years? - you're only a novice Amanda - but congratulations on 22 years anyway.
Many people don't get that far these days.

Well, obviously you must be so young Amanda :-D

Hark at you lot ..... 40 years , 43 years and 51years <3

And there was me thinking I was doing well having been with my OH for almost 22 years ......lol

Sue , Aimee sounds like a bit of an imp :-D

I loved pickled beetroot :-)

Amanda - Aimee winds Joel up very quietly then Joel gets told off for yelling at her :-)

We don't make a big deal of our anniversaries either although last December it was our 40th and we went out for a special dinner.

12 Tec?......mmmmmm

Yes I shall make sure Berona knows about the agapanthus :-D

I just know she will be impressed........

and think "poor old soul" :-D

Linda , our Raspberries won't be along for a few weeks yet as we grow Autumn ones . I don't pickle anything as I can't tolerate the indigestion ...... lol

Sorry Amanda - Somehow I missed your earlier post :-(

School Report said "Must pay attention" :-D

Glad that Tommy's hand is as good as it can be at this stage.

Only 43 years Sue

I hope the antibiotics work quickly Amanda, but it sounds as if it is coming along well

I have loads of Raspberries to collect tomorrow, but I will just freeze them. I made lots of spiced vinegar today and pickled the first of the beetroot

I'm good thanks Tec :-) I did a longish post with news of Tommy just a few mins ago :-S
