Entry tags:anniversary, james, mat
I don't really do birthdays and christmas, and I don't do other people's anniversaries. But there are a couple of dates that are quite important to me. There's the date in early June when [personal profile] magister and I first met, which is almost exactly coincident with the date four years later when we first had a "date", given that both happened at the FFW. Then there's the date in early October this year when we all moved in together to our lovely new house.

Today, though? 15th of February? That's the anniversary of me first meeting [personal profile] matgb. I shall be eternally grateful to [livejournal.com profile] ginasketch for her suggestion that we escape the horrors of Valentine's Day in our dead relationships by going to London to see them record the News Quiz and we could fangirl Sandi oh and while we're there, there's this guy who just moved to London who wants to meet us for a drink...

That was five years ago. Five years. A lot has happened since then, some of it good and some of it less good, but one thing's for sure: I'm a lot happier now than I was then.

Happy anniversary, my lovely [personal profile] matgb. And here's to the next five years. And the five after that. And... well, you get the picture.

I could have sworn it was 2006.

I may have dove straight into Mat's archive to prove myself wrong >_>

The things I do.

Nah, I left my job in Torquay at the end of 2006 and started sleeping on Mike's sofa early 2007.

But yeah, 5 years. It's weird, it doesn't seem that long ago that we were doing silly things in London and Amy was a 1st year, she's, what, half way through postgrad now? Scary.

Congratulations to both of you! I actually can't believe it's so *short* a time - I've only known you since you were together, and it feels like I've known you both a lot longer than that...

* snuggly huggles SB & Mat *

Happy anniversary to both of you! It is hard to believe five years has already passed, but I am glad you found each other and that life has improved because of it.

* thinks it convenient to have an anniversary the day after Valentine's Day as everything goes on sale *

;)

Happy Anniversary! Some things really are worth celebrating.

I just realised when I was writing Bob's card yesterday that it was our 25th Valentine's Day together. The man deserves a long service medal, particularly when he has to put up with the Liberal Democrats as well.

Five years? Christ on a bike. That makes me feel old*.

It's clear that knowing MatG has made you a happier Miss_s_, and I think the other side of the equation holds up, too.

Many congratulations on everything you've both achieved, to the joy you've brought to yourselves and those around you. May the coming years be filled with all kinds of bliss beyond your collective expectations.
