We met when he came to work in the department where I was the big boss's secretary. I was married to someone else, he'd just got engaged - both of those 'arrangements' fell apart, and we got together afterwards at a squash club Christmas party. He moved in with me a year later (30 years ago this Christmas), and we married nearly a year after that. >*|*<

17th July 1976 at a party in Eastcote near Ruislip in Middlesex. Right at the end of the party, I went indoors - I'd been in the garden all evening - Mel was making coffee. I thought he was gorgeous, but it turned out he was taking another girl home, though he did kiss all the girls goodnight first, including me! ...4th March 1977 another party at the same address. I had been there all evening as I was staying the night and was completely sloshed. Mel turned up on the spur of the moment. The girl who was giving the party thought he would do for our friend L who was in love with someone completely unsuitable at the time. L wasn't interested, but thought Mel looked more like my type - she beckoned me over to introduce us. I said we'd already met and then uttered the immortal line 'I'm very drunk. Do you mind if I lean on your shoulder?' 4th Feb 1978 we moved into our first flat together 15 October 1986 we moved into our first house together 17 August 1990 we got married. nell

On a blind date my mate had set up back in 1980. Couldn't stand him at first but must have changed my mind as we've been married 23 years! Christine

In a disco - he was standing by the bar with his foot stuck out and I tripped over it, that was about 8.30pm, his first words to me were at 10.50pm [last orders were being called] and were 'I suppose I had better say something to you'. That was 31 years ago.

In 1972 in a nightclub, I was 15 and he was 20, he was on a stag night with his friends and my mate knew his mate and she told his mate that I fancied him. Were not married and have no kids and have just celebrated 33 years together. I love him to bits, he is so laid back hes almost lying down. Yvonne
