I remember taking a young lady there for dinner one evening. 9 December 1974. In those days I worked at Port Sunlight and she was based at Lever's head office down in Kingston. We had been talking for about a year over the phone and she had to come up on business for a day or two. I arranged to take her out that first evening.

We got married 5 October 1975.
