The best of wishes for joining the gang :-) IMHO marriage(or any kind of commitment as well) is the most difficult project of our human lifes , since marring is easy, but maintaining it it's the hardest part. Be prepared to give a lot of concessions (you and her) ... it's the only way to keep your love and your marriage ... and don't give after the 1st neither the nth strugle, IMHO if you really love a person, then it's really worthful to battle for it. I've been married for a year and two months , and I can say that my and her's sacrifices are worth it :-D Cheers,Joao Vaz And if your dream is to care for your family, to put food on the table, to provide them with an education and a good home, then maybe suffering through an endless, pointless, boring job will seem to have purpose. And you will realize how even a rock can change the world, simply by remaining obstinately stationary.-Shog9 Remember just because a good thing comes to an end, doesn't mean that the next one can't be better.-Chris Meech

Thanks. :) We are toying with the idea of taking Eurostar to Paris for the day (it's on a Sunday), just for the romance of it, and because we have never been there before. It is slightly bad timing though as we get back from our holiday in SA 3 days before our aniversary. We may be too tired to do anything. Which would be a good thing from the point of view of having had a great holiday :cool:

                                          The "romance of Paris" comes as follows: Paris is an ugly, dirty, noisy, hectic, tourist-flooded town, with some old buildings as you can find all over europe. French people, especially those from Paris, have a personality quirk that is by outsiders usually understood as utterly arrogant. Yet, if you're really in love, you just don't notice. :cool: May you enjoy Paris.
