Mum and Dad got their letter from the Queen...

from WinCustomize Forums

The old buggers celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary on Friday night.

We all went to the Windsor [an old swish Hotel in Melbourne - same place they were at 60 years earlier to the day] for dinner.

The Queen's letter was warmly received....not so sure about Howard's, however...

/me wonders if he'll make it to 60....35.5 to go..... [doh...the Queen won't]

Geez....3 life sentences....marriage must be one hell of a crime...

First married in May 74, so that's 32 years and I'd only have 28 to go - but does it count if it's not to the same woman...a letter from the Queen/PM, that is?

Congrats to your parents, however, they've done exceedingly well to reach their 60th.

Warm congrats to your folks, Jafo ...shows that a well-manicured marriage can last a lifetime.

I guess they did an okay job with their offspring too ...come to think of it.

You're a pretty tolerant fella, and a nice guy into the bargain.

[Meant sincerely, and in a blokey - backslappin' ~punch in the arm kind of way ]

Don't blame her! She's probably worried the bill is in the mail, given his wring every cent out of you stint as Treasurer.
