Congratulations Barb, it was 53 yrs ago today that I bought you a Babycham at the Elizabethan Ballroom at Belle Vue Gorton Manchester and formed a relationship that has endured all those years together, it was the most expensive drink I ever bought but worth every penny (it was in those days) just a few more months for our Golden anniversary.
Still love you very much and thanks for putting up with my tantrums (and spending on m/hs) for all those years and looking forward to the next 50 yrs together xxxx
Bob

Awwww you sloppy sod
But you may have been like my hubby tight when it comes to drinks. I once asked for a brandy and babycham and I got the babycham minus the brandy
Congrats to you both. Xxx

Hi Les, thanks for the link and it brought back some really happy memories from our courting days and the Belle Vue speedway with my hero Ivan Mauger, who incidentally lived next to my brother when he retired and had a gold plated bike in his hallway, boy did we party in those days.
