Yesterday was our seventh wedding anniversary.

Funny thing happened just after we got married in 2001 when we met our ex neighbour up at the Haarlemmerdijk where we used to live.

She said ' Herrad how old fashioned of you to get married'.

Incredible woman such wit!

She was very against alot of the squats, but not the one I lived at as she had befriended our resident cat.

After she found our cat in her garden and took it in we could do no wrong in her eyes.

It made life on the Haarlemmerdijk very agreeable for us indeed.
