My husband says it's my fault he's got grey hairs, because he didn't have any before he married me. I have to remind him that he was only 21 when he married me.

Never complain about going grey. Ask any bald-headed person!

Pauline,

It was my best man and I that picked the date for my wedding.

We were doing our usual daft stuff and being called out to go all over the place. We decided we needed a date that would not be forgotten and one that be might just allow us a window of opportunity to complete all the proceedings ie. Stag Party Night, Wedding Day and a brief honeymoon, a week at most.

The date.....8/8/68

We managed everything and even had lads in uniform for a Guard of Honour. Complete I might add with rifles. Try doing that now.

Stephen, Roly thought he was clever choosing the 29/2/1964 as it was a leap year. Hah, me wait four years for an anniversary, never on your life.
We also had a guard of honour,R.A.F style, I know I know I married a brylcreme boy,even though all my forbears were army.
We actually married on camp in Germany, with the camp vicar holding the service,and Roly's squadron leader gave me away. He couldn't wait to get rid of me. LOL

Maddie we married in the same year as you.
Hubby had longish hair too. Mine was below my shoulders.
He wore a lilac tie die shirt and a black leather jacket.
The bride wore pink !!! As we married in a registry office I didn't want white and chose a full length dress I could wear again. Yes it was too.
Maybe we should see if we can find wedding photos to send each other I bet Rita looked lovely !!

Had a quiet day today and hubby is snoozing in his chair.

Linda :o) XxX

Linda, I wore a brown suit,a white and yellow spotted blouse, brown shoes,and a yellow hat. My word what was I thinking back then.
I believe I look older in my wedding photo's than I do now. I know that sounds strange, but the fashions have changed so much over the years,and when I look back,my outfit was a disaster. LOL

Maddie,

It was around 1971/73 we were 'ordered' to grow our hair so that we were not so obvious.
British Military lads were being murdered/assasinated by the ***.

We were also told to walk differently....a military walk is so
distinctive.

W.ish I could grow the same hair now.

Yvonne, have you tried going back into your account,deleting your original name,and adding it again. I don't know if it will work as others have had the same problems.
