Meeting Tim

 


Way back in 1983, I decided on a whim to join an introduction agency also called a dating agency. This is how I meet Tim; he rang on the 7th June he rang and asked me out, he picked me up at 7pm on the 9th June.

So, we meet in my parents’ lounge room, our first date saw us going to Pizza Hut, then into Newcastle to the night club “Fanny’s”. I don’t remember much about that night.

What I do remember is that when he took me home, he told me he was going away to see a mate for the weekend and asked me to go with him, but I said no, as we had only just meet. He said he would ring me when he got back, then he left without kissing me.

I was worried I wouldn’t see him again, but he rang me on the Tuesday, neither of can remember what we did on our second date.

By September that year Tim had was arranging our Engagement party, he told me one day that he had invited some people to our engagement party, and I said you haven’t even asked me, he smiled and said but you will.

Our engagement party was held in November and doubled as my 21st birthday party.

    1. Well it was a long time ago so hazy memories should be expected I guess. I can honestly say I am still in love with him
