    I was riding my bike on the canal path. A canal boat was coming towards me. A gentleman and a lovely lady waved at me and said Hello. Then I realised it was Prunella and Timothy West. A lovely memory for me. ❤️❤️❤️

      Yes… you’re so right. 🌈 I could’ve listened to them all day, also. Such a blessed couple full of love and respect for and with each other, with dignity to top it all off. Something we don’t see much of these days. It’s real old school stuff. Thank you… I enjoyed your comment 🤗

    I’m hopeful my husband and I make it this long too. I was 20 and he was 27 when we first met. He’s now 68 and I’m 61 and we retired together last year because we wanted as much time together as possible before reaching end!! We have big plans for the next 20 years so I just hope we come out the other side as happy as these two appear to be!!!
    Best wishes for many more years!
    Cheers

    My Mother was diagnosed with vascular dementia n 2007. It is a terrible disease to have and so hard on the entire family. Unfortunately, we were unable to care for Mum and she entered into a long term care facility. Where she quite often did not understand why she was there. Hard to see this in a loved one.

    Fantastic series with the two of these lovely people. Timothy is so brave and he is always Sir Leister Dedlock to me (Bleakhouse, Charles Dickens). Thoughts are with their awesome son Samuel, who I have almost grown up with watchng his acting in period drama's and lately The Crown and All Creatures, Great and Small. Pretty sure his parents are very proud and Britain is very lucky to have such people in their community. I'm sure Queen Camilla may want to help their project to build research on Dementia. Wishing Timothy and Prunella strength now.

    True love can reshape to accommodate the challenges of life, it’s often not easy, but that’s how love works. Conversely it also shapes grief, grief is just love with nowhere to go, love out of place. These two still have one another, so no true grief yet, just a reshaping of love.
