Good for you! Rather than look up what it is, what is a rahid taha gig and what is the womad?

Do you complement each other with your interests and talents, or do you share a lot of interests?

We were at separate single-sex grammar schools, but half way through Sixth Form, the education system went comprehensive. We had to transfer to a mixed sixth form college. He was shown some photos of our old school group by some friends and seemed impressed with me. They decided that we were meant for each other and did a spot of matchmaking. That was in 1974.

I was wearing five-inch heels and my feet were killing me. I worked in a local law firm and was waiting for my sister in law to finish work at a retail store so that I could grab a ride home with her. This long tall drink of water who also worked at the store offered to drive me home on his break. I accepted and the rest is history. In fact, we will celebrate twenty-six years of history in ten days.

I so enjoy stories of romance. To be sure, I'll be sharing how Marge and I got together; but I wanted to read some of yours first.

rahid taha is an algerian rock outfit, and womad stands for world of music and dance, a world music festival. legacy of peter gabriel and his realworld lable.

She stalked me, I gave in.


Well that's kind of true. She followed me from a bar where I had cause to interact with her on a professional basis, my shift there changed to a neighbouring bar, and lo she appeared there too, and ensured that i again had to interact with her, we had a weekend of frenzied passion, then she went back to her hometown. I stayed in touch over a 5 week period, when she announced that she was coming back and best i find her somewhere to live. That was 10 years ago, 8th wedding anniversary is in december, and our lad starts school next week (5y/o)

I met my husband when he was 7 & I was 9. His father had just died & he came to live with his mom & stepdad. I started "dating" his brother actually when we were 11 years old (if you can call it dating at that age) & then the family moved away. When they came back, husband was 16 & I was 17. I asked him out & we've been together ever since. Got married after a few years of being together & have 3 beautiful children. We'll celebrate our 15 year wedding anniversary in November.

Congrats to Mark and also to MrsJF. Works both ways, doesn't it? That is, someone you've known a long time, and someone you just meet.
