MET MY FUTURE HUSBAND

mgpbird's memory. No date

I WAS 15 YEARS OLD AND MET MY HUSBAND ON A BLIND DATE THROUGH A FRIEND OF MINE, SHE WAS SEEING HIS MATE AND THOUGHT IT A GOOD IDEA TO GET US TOGETHER. IT WASN'T LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT! HOWEVER WE MET A COUPLE OF TIMES AND GOT ON ALTHOUGH HE IS 6 YEARS OLDER THAN ME. HE HAD A MOTORBIKE AND THAT WAS WHEN I FIRST BECAME HOOKED ON BIKES EVEN THOUGH AT THE TIME I DIDNT REALISE WHAT A GREAT INFLUENCE THEY WOULD HAVE ON MY LIFE. WE MARRIED IN 1971 AND CELEBRATE OUR 37TH ANNIVERSARY IN APRIL-AND WE ARE STILL MOTORCYCLING!
