'People keep asking me when I’m going to get married, but we must be doing something right as we’re still together.

'We’ve lasted much longer than most marriages, so it’s probably the fact we’ve not got done it that means we’re still here now.
“我们比大多数的婚姻持续了更长的时间，所以可能是我们还没有结婚意味着我们现在还在一起。”

George proposed to Glynis in May 1980. But before buying Glynis an engagement ring he nearly blew it all on an expensive carpet. He said: 'I got made redundant in 1980 and I had all this money to spend, so I thought why not buy her a ring - but first things first, I bought a new carpet for us.
乔治在1980年5月向格利尼斯求婚。但在此之前购买格利尼斯的订婚戒指，他差点因为昂贵的地毯把戒指的事搞砸了。他说：“我在1980年失业了，我只有这么些钱，所以我想为什么不给她买一个戒指呢——但首要的事情，我为我们买了一块新地毯。”

'I can still clearly remember the night I proposed. I was very nervous, but I’d had a few sherbets, so I suppose I was fine.
“我还清楚地记得我求婚的那个晚上。当时我很紧张，但我有几个冰冻果子露，所以我想我还好。”

'The place was absolutely packed, they stopped the music and I got down on one knee and she said yes.'
“那个场所绝对装饰了，他们停止了音乐，我单膝跪地，她答应了。”
