Mr.D. I'm presuming that you dont have her phone number or maybe if shes from our generation she could be in the phone book. Not Yellow Pages but the other phone directory we'd be given FREE😁! Seriously it may be good to chat about times gone by, which friends you both knew are still around etc? I may be over-stepping the mark here but there's no harm in trying to find a friend from the past...well not in my opinion anyway.Go for it! ( hope she's a dog lover or else it will be a very short reunion eh?)💕
Now Mr.D its very unlike you to be so dispondant but if you can think of any links that may lead you to her ..... well you've nothing to loose my dear friend!?!?💕
Despondent?🤣 I'd forgotten all about her until she was dug out to provide a subject for a rhyme. As I said in a previous rhyme, I am a one dog man and Midge is a one man dog. Meeting another old friend from the past would nice, I've lost so many recently.
Im sure you were Don, we just never know how long we have but you can count your blessings to have had such a long time together, i never found that special person x
P.s don't look at the food menu it is frighteningly expensive and at £28 for a Norfolk chicken to share i would want to bloody adopt the thing at that price.
😂 it was always too posh there. My Uncle, who I stayed with, and I used The Malthouse further down the road. She wasn’t there because I took Margaret there for a meal about 15 years ago. That too had moved up-market. 🙄
The Malthouse back in the 1950s didn't sell food apart from pickled eggs, pork scratching and the like. Full of farm labourers and gamekeepers it was an education to spend an evening there. As a Lancashire lad I was a complete foreigner but accepted because I was in army uniform when they first met me.
Oh that is one of your best Don! I bet there are many old boys out there that remember times like that. How times have changed! So glad you have such a happy marriage..
Lovely poem as usual Don. There was a 97 year old woman at my mother's care home who had been married 76 years, never had kids and never been apart. They were both in the home sharing a room and she only outlived him by a few months x
It makes you wonder what enables people to live so long, I've never looked after myself particularly well, mind you I've a way to go before I'm in their league. I had an Aunt who was just six months short of one hundred when she died, she had never married but looked after mother until her death at 96
I’ve just been googling Jean Marshall from Michelmarsh in order to play matchmaker and give you a second chance but no luck.
You have been blessed with a very happy 55 years together with your wife and that is very enviable.
Further up you asked what enables people to live so long and from my experience of knowing a lovely man, Walter, who lived to be 99 and had a sister, Jesse, aged 107 I’d say it’s down to genes and lifestyle.
They had a younger brother who liked his alcohol. He only made it to 77. Walter was a complete teetotaller all his life but Jesse liked a glass of whisky. Needless to say neither of them smoked. Walter didn’t look after himself particularly well but he drank a lot of tea which he insisted was the reason for his longevity.
Thank you Corin, that's very kind of you to go to that much trouble on my behalf. I've decided not to pursue the Jean Marshal matter any further. She is probably now a shrivelled bitter old lady having lived a life of misery and regret over the monumental mistake she made back in the 1950s. I'll also stop querying why I'm so ancient and pretend I'm only 75 again. 😁 I'm off to make a cuppa too.
