42 years ago today, and we haven't changed at all. Just a shame John,s lost a tooth and a few strands of hair. But apart from that no change.
Aldershot Garrison Church at 15.30 hrs 1974, and never regretted a day.

Wish it was 1974 now John. I was 22 and could leap over tall buildings. Highlight of the year was a memorable tour of Hong Kong. I was blasting out Bowie and Gary Glitter ( this was still in the days when you would still have let Gary babysit your 12 year old son and daughter, on nights when Jimmy and Rolf weren't free) where the feck did the years go? Congratulations John by the way.

I have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.
Congratulations to Shirley and You John, BRILLIANT! Like Val n me you,ve lasted the assault course of married life through good and bad, a sure sign of character and strength to pull through the tuff times. Now getting towards our dotage, ya can,t beat the Love of a GOOD woman, although deafness is a big help!
1974? I wuz navvying with the Murphy men, keeping the body fit and purrin scoff on the table fer my beloved and at that time two young daughters, with a son to bi added to the fold one year later. HAPPY DAYS!
Nice one John, in 74 I was even younger than Steve, been in the Squadron nearly a year and some of the lads had even started to talk to mebut Hong Kong was a real treat. Sorry we missed your wedding, probably for the best though

In 68 we sorted out all the territories, sha Tau Kok and were commended for the ob's by looking over the China Boarder
the drinkies from the Uss over from Vietnam. Bar hired for $50 HK, What a great time that was. I may make it over there again before I get too old.

Good post John, marriage is what you make it mate. We got married in 1962 and still argue and have our differences, but I can honestly say I'd be bloody lost without her. Nice photo mate !
