People gave us the ‘it won’t last’ and ‘she’s mental/he’s mental’ tripe. adore her just as much now as I did all those years ago.
Yes, but you always look like you've been run over and bummed!Docca wrote: Tue May 12, 2026 6:45 pm Met my wife via visordown on a drinks. We were both seeing other people at the time, neither very serious.
I’d apparently said I knew fuck all about bikes on the forum and had been quite barbed about folk that just sit around and talk about bikes ( doesn’t sound like me). Nicki turned up with a pack of ‘Top Trumps bikes’ for me and we just clicked. Ended up back at hers that night, via being picked up by Weeksy from the train station (I’d missed my last train). Nothing dodgy happened that night but we clicked.
Went on our first date Feb 25th, moved in together April when we discovered she was pregnant ( so didn’t have to do any of the moving boxes!).
Had two kids. Whilst flying over Australia, I took the opportunity to ask her dad for her hand in marriage. We both had phobias of flying, so I thought it was good timing. I reckon I could have asked him for his wallet and he would have said yes
He then died soon after and we decided to have the wedding at their local church. I’m not religious in the slightest, but it meant something for them.
I had a light ‘stag’ in Cambridge then a traditional night out the night before the wedding. I do not, and I cannot stress this point enough, recommend doing this. A load of my Cambridge uni mates and I went to a rural pub quiz in Oxford, they found out we were Cambridge and I was getting married the next day. This triggered two things: regret when we stuffed them in the pub quiz, and everyone and their dog seemed to get me a drink. I’ve no idea how I got back to where I was staying.
Next day was wedding. I’m not sharing photos- wife looks stunning, I look as though I’ve been run over and then bummed.
Her lucky number is 8, so we were married 080808. After the wedding service, we all turned to the back of the church and baptised our daughter.
Now 5 kids, eldest 20 and youngest about to turn 14.

I remember the night you two met, I think it was the evening we got barred from the one half decent pub on Holborn because Go Slow was insistent on his right to shout "CUNT" loudly across the bar every 30 seconds!
I'm 6'2" and my ex wife's family is all short (tallest her eldest brother at 5'7") I once commented in jest that "I felt like Snow White" at a family dinner.. the ex MIL blurted a short laugh but everyone else was stony facedv8-powered wrote: Tue May 12, 2026 6:56 pmIm a giant at 6' 1" apparently, this was exaggerated by a photo at the weekend with her wider family and I must be a good 6" taller than the next tallest
