Dear All

Hello,

This is taken from the film "Avanti" with Jack Lemmon and Juliet Mills.

He is asking her about romance.

She says: "When you're in love, you don't need words.
A look, a sigh, a touch...... you've said it all".

Happy anniversay mons.

Very best wishes to all.

I'm sure romance isn't dead and never will die - would have been my fiftieth last March - been in my car just now listening to Rod Stewart - American Song Book - "All the things you are"

No! Romance doesn't die - not unless you let it die!

Come on, Mons - you've just celebrated your anniversary. In fact, you couldn't wait, could you? Got in early - and TWO nights at that! You're doing well for 24 years! Now, that was just nice. Any more and you might be over-doing it! You HAD your anniversary over the weekend - got to get back to normal some time!

Romance doesn't die - but it does mellow - nicely.

Lol !!! Bob. No romance (love) isn't dead in this house. There wont be a huge bouquet of flowers for me but there will be cards exchanged and we will go out somewhere for the day and have a meal. As Elizabeth said, all it needs is a look, a touch and a sigh.

I am soppy Bob - and for those of you who have never experienced romance, you have my sympathies - really

Romance starts at that moment you set eyes on the person you know is the one for you, and for a long long time your heart misses a beat every time you see him - it mellows after a while but the feelings are still strong and remain so for ever - if he's the right one that is!!!
