It was 53 years ago today that I met Anne ('er indoors)...

Congrats, by the way...Lefty.
Oooooof... Gold's a bit steep.

@Old Blue 2 Well then, you better start composing the wifey a golden guitar solo! 🤣

Congratulations to you both Sir. Here's to many many more.
🥂💙🎉


*My mum and dad are due to celebrate their 60th in a couple of years.
60 years is diamonds, Thomas! You better start saving mate. :eek:

Although, I do remember reading somewhere in an old issue of 'High Times' magazine that in this modern age, you can substitute it with hemp IF your folks are smelly old school hippies. But I doubt yours are, mate! 😜

My folks celebrated their 40th a couple of years back... So I'm still a baby!
 


Congratulations mate, I’m amazed with all that going on in your life you ever found the time to write all those books 👍
With full-time work, I did the research and writing on evenings and week-ends. I also worked in going to Germany to interview former members of the Lw that I had tracked down, and also attend a reunion once a year. Anne occasionally came with me to the reunions, and was always made most welcome. Here's a piccie from her attendance at one of them in the mid-1980s. She's in front. Behind her is me; Richard Marchfelder (pilot - PoW 16 August 1940) and the wives of two of the veterans.

Marriage is a two-way street. And you both have to know how to navigate it every second of every day, every week, every month, every year. And we both know how to navigate it with give-and-take from both sides...
'It takes two to tango'? Isn't that the phrase they use?

Which makes sense, as long it doesn't mean that you're like Al Pacino in 'Scent of a Woman' in that scene when he's dancing the tango blind. :eek:

I was just lead guitar and backing vocals (to paraphrase a certain Beatle).

I'm not a composer.
Don't sell yourself short, mate... Even Ringo occasionally got the chance to write a song:


You never know what you can accomplish when you put your mind to it! 😜
