Philip
& I met in our local pub, "The Ring of
Feathers" in Oldham, England.
We
had been talking a few times and he told me he was
going on holiday to Benidorm.
Joking
I told him that I loved to go with him. He
said I could if I wanted but he went without me.
The
day he came back, Manchester United were playing
Bayern Munich in the Champions League Final and
I was engrossed in the match and never saw him.
Philip isn't a supporter of Man U (he's an
Oldham Athletic fan) so he wasn't really bothered
by the brilliant result but I was on cloud nine
and as we were leaving the pub I asked him along
to a celebration at my friends house. He refused.
The
next day I went to the pub and he was there. He
had come in to apologise to me for being rude the
night before. I was that drunk & happy
I didn't realise he had been off-hand, but we sat
talking and we were really enjoying each others
company.
We
continued to see each other in the pub, then one
night he came to the house that I was staying at
and we sat on the sofa talking all night. He had
to go to work at 6am and we were sill chatting away!
All
I could think about for the rest of the day was
him. We met that night and since then, we
have been together every day.
After
a few months we decided to buy a house together
and on the 22nd December 1999 we moved in. We got
engaged just before we moved into the house and
we have never been happier.
We
decided to get married in Malta as both my parents
and Philip's mum love the island and, although we
have never been here, I know we will love it.
We
are getting married in Mellieha on the 14th May
2005. I have picked this day as it would have
been my Nana's birthday. I miss her so much.
She died before she had the chance to meet
Philip but I know she would have loved him.
