    It's right what they say
    "The course of true love never runs smoothly"
    But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as
    much as we do right now - 1 week to go :D

    I have know my soulmate for 27 years and on the 6th August
    I married him and became Mrs Garnham.
    It was most definitely the happiest day of my life.
    I love married life !!!!
