Summer 19..

Neville

Summer 19..

 

Somewhere on a west country couchette

they fell in love

and so completely, they both missed their

destination stops

But who cared, it was the summer of 19 ..

              Imagine two people, complete strangers, heading out to meet their partners, then fate strikes. The rest is history.

                  I did have a friend who's new wife the very next day after the wedding said she couldn't remember who he was, even though they'd been together for years. She walked away from the marriage and hooked up with her girlfriend. He was brave, though, he came into the bar like a man. lol

                    A long lost love
                    Or eternal love missed today
                    I just got nostalgic over a music similar to your lines
                    Good one dear Neville
