	A couple thought to have been married longer than anyone in the country have celebrated their 80th anniversary. Frank and Anita Milford, from Plymouth, exchanged vows on 26 May, 1928. Frank is 100 and when Anita also turns 100 in June it is thought they will be the only living couple in Britain to have both reached a century. The couple marked their "oak" anniversary with champagne in the company of their family, at the Plymouth nursing home where they live. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/devon/7420471.stm

	Hi Fuzzy, how are you? I think it's lovely in this day and age that some people can be married for 80 years.
