In Celebration of our Wedding Anniversary

Here are the 17 things I love about you - there are probably lots more, but this will do for a start. After 42 years of marriage I guess I could add a few more as the years unfold.

Happy Anniversary my beautiful Patricia - I will love you into the next life and the one after that and the one after that.

You might get fed up of me by then.

For those who may be interested - we were married on Christmas Eve 24th December 1966. My wife was the best Christmas present I ever had. I was not a virgin though - Hooray for that - another great Christmas present Patricia gave me.     Ohhh - I'm in trouble now...
