50th Wedding Anniversary. Nicky’s (my wife) parents (the in laws) got married 50 years ago today (11th September 1972).
We went over to their house to help them celebrate, had a nice lunch in a pub they like and then round to theirs for the grandkids to run about the place. Nicky’s mum loves a party game, so after cake we had a couple of rounds of pass the parcel, musical statues and finished with a couple of black lace 80s party favourites, I am the music man, Agadoo. It was a blast from the past!
The kids (and Nicky’s Mum) had a whale of a time!
When Nicky tried to get 50th wedding anniversary related gifts they were pretty thin on the ground. A couple of the people she spoke to said so few marriages last this long that there isn’t much in the way of gifts. 50 years is a long time.
