              I have a list Shiney that shows all the anniversaries but unfortunately it stops at diamond. That's not encouraging is it. :heehee:

              I'll just have to put that date in my diary for the divorce. We can live in sin after that. :snork:

                Oh dear!! I didn't know about that! I'll have to look into it at the time (another note for my diary) and consider whether I just say 'I divorce you' three times.

                  Getting back to the original topic :love30: :heehee:

                  Last year we didn't do our usual distant places travelling (didn't do anything) as Mrs Shiney was studying but for this winter I'm looking at gallivanting around India and Sri Lanka - got to have a look at how the colonies are faring :old: :snork: . If I manage it, I'll take lots of photos.
