Hey guys, we've done it! The big 25 years married!<br />I gave my wife a pair of white gold earrings with a diamond in each one, which she totally enjoyed.<br />She gave me a bloody fright, I unwrapped her gift to an explination about a TV program I'd apparently laughed my head off watching.<br />You see it was called "Black Adder" and starred Rowan Atkinson. He was playing the part of "Baldrick" who was the manservent to Blackadder during the second world war. They were in the trenches when Blackadder observed Baldrick scratching something on the side of a .303 bullet. On questioning him Baldrick admitted that he'd heard that every soldier had a bullet out there with his name on it, so he reckoned that he'd carve his name on one and keep it in his pocket, thereby no-one else could shoot him!<br />My wife gave me a silver plated bullet with my name engraved on the side of it! It was one of mine.<br />I think it's a brilliant idea. Lets hope there's another 25 years. Thoughtfull little begger my wife eh!<br />Ross
<br />and of course 25 for our Mate
