25th Wedding Anniversary tomorrow...

... and my missus decided that I needed another engine (20HP Evinrude) more than we needed to splash out on a weekend away etc... I am now both gobsmacked and pretty impressed to be honest!

We're now going down to our local pub for the £5 steak night nomorrow to celebrate!

Happy anniversary .

Just told my other half and asked her if she would do the same for me in 25 years time.
Her reply was " That counts as a marrage proposal "
