We're looking at 45 years wed come December. When you look at my thousands of posts here you might think I'm a bit of a ratbag. But Mrs Steve and I are equal partners, we refuse equally to take bullshit off each other (we both do a good snarl), we can get all cross (it never lasts), and we TALK a lot. I suppose we're best mates. Of course, there are other aspects of married life that are just as important but beyond the remit of this website's chatter. Every now and then, put down the iPhone and iPad, turn down the telly volume and have a good old natter. Works for us!

And she likes my cooking...

And I like her ironing of my shirts...

And we both enjoy the odd glass of Prosecco or something...
