On this day...

...in 1553...Lady Jane Grey was replaced as the Queen on England after 9 days on the throne

...in 1692...5 women were hanged as part of the Salem Witch Trials

...in 1946...Marilyn Monroe completed her first screen test

...in 1954...the first part of "The Lord of the Rings" was published in London

...in 1961...the first ever inflight movie was shown on a TWA flight

...in 1990...I met my future best friend, future confidante and future husband.

OK So I didn't know his name as I showed him how to frog scull port but that came later.

Happy anniversary sweetheart.
Looking forward to our next 20 years together,
then the 20 after that,
and the next,
and the next...

Footnote:  Thank you for your best wishes. But due to an "incident" involving post-exam celebrations, myself and a cask of port a year later, I haven't touched port for 19 years.
