Peter & Linda

On the weekend of May 15th we had a wonderful celebration of this great day! The previous Sunday, Greg Burson, the leader of The Edge, Kingsland, Auckland, where we are members, asked Linda to share her story in the morning service. It brought the house down! Especially the story of our meeting at a Summer Holiday Conference in Exmouth,Devon, where I proposed within three days. A track record,I think!
Now we seem to be something of an endangered species. Still in love after 40 years! Linda regularly appears on Television New Zealand in an advert for a skin treatment. Every week, people stop us and say : “Is it true that she is 63 years old and has so many grandchildren?”

A special bonus was meeting A A Gill, the unique restaurant and television critic at a VIP reception in Auckland. We have long been his fans and were doubly blessed to find he was staying at The Langham Hotel in Auckland where we had our main celebration. At Breakfast on the 15th Linda told Adrian that we had been married 40 years. He said “You must have married when you were 16!”
