I wanted to tell you that the most recent post about the wedding on Portsmouth was one of the most romantic things I’ve ever read! Maybe because having visited Portsmouth, I wanted to hear a story like that, as I stared at the church thinking of the love (and sorrow) that had been enjoyed there by so many.<br /><br />This article makes me want to daydream all day about magical, more innocent times and old weddings! Love it! I especially love the bit about the couple that courted for 50 years and never married due to the argument about the living arrangements, 2 miles apart. Would have loved to have met those people, they sound like interesting folk!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!<br /><br />Sincerely, <br /><br />RachelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559692.post-69324625991962833902011-02-21T22:06:54.390-05:002011-02-21T22:06:54.390-05:00I've had this piece for a while...but can'...I've had this piece for a while...but can't remember now who passed it on to me.Philiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01572532603071469799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559692.post-2594607897109948062011-02-21T19:54:45.837-05:002011-02-21T19:54:45.837-05:00What a fantastic reminiscence.
