One bright Summer evening, way back in the mid Sixties, two friends and myself agreed to meet outside the Ritz dance hall, in Manchester. I arrived early, and when Doreen and Barbara met me we decided to go for a “drink” at a nearby pub. Doreen knew many people there and the outcome of this was, that we never got back to the Ritz , but formed friendships which ,in my case ,turned to marriage with Jim. We have been together for forty three years.
