Default Anniversary

It's a very special year for me and my wife Susan this year, as on the 14th August its our Golden Wedding Anniversary. As on the 14th August 1975, we were married at St. Mary's Church in Hemel Hempstead, where Susan lived at the time, so 50 years, three daughters and 3 Granddaughters later, here we are.

We haven't decided what to do yet, but it will certainly be something special

Advanced congratulations on 50 years. (From a mere amateur of 25 years married life)

Thanks Fred,

I remember our Silver Wedding Anniversary too, I arranged for a tour of the church in Hemel where we were married, and we were even shown around the church by the vicar that married us, Robin Stevens, and that brought back some happy memories, then we had a weeks holiday in the same hotel in Torquay where we spent our honeymoon, Shedden Hall, that's now sadly been destroyed by fire when they were renovating it.

Thinking back to when we were married, the biggest pain was having to go down to Hemel in the week time for the wedding rehearsal's, much time off work that called for, fortunately I worked for great company at the time, ITT Consumer Products, so that was no problem at all, they even arranged for me to combine my visits to Hemel to visit a local dealer, so I was even paid for everything, including travel, as well.
