Fifty one five years we have lasted. There has to be a reason other than, well, habit, I thought, and, keeping note book and pen to hand began to make a list.
1. He knows how a washing machine works and uses it. He has never thrown dirty clothes on to the floor expecting me to pick 'em up and launder them.
2. He irons without diminishing his masculinity in the least. In fact he is at his most attractive when wielding an iron.
3. He ran for me once...and he never runs. In a crisis he walks very quickly.
4. He still pronounces Shakespeare and Sherlock Holmes-Shakeass-peare and Sheltock Hol mess, and calls a sheet a shit.
5. He takes pride in my achievements.
6. He washes the dishes after every meal. He says 'You cook, I wash.'
7. He kisses the back of my neck and says I smell the same as I did when me met.
8. He does not appear to see the ravages of time on my face.
9. He has beautiful hands.
10. And handwriting.
11. His feet never smell.
12. He honours his father and his mother.
13. He took care of my mother.
14. And in so doing moved toEngland
15. He still retains his Frenchness.
16. He never fails to compliment the chef...moi.
17. He watched every minute of my graduation ceremony without moving from the edge of his seat; even during the long, rather boring speeches.
18. And he wore a tie.
19. He buys me flowers almost every week.
20. He loves to shop for groceries [like that he gets to buy the cheeses he prefers]
Now if the preceding list makes JP out to be some paragon of virtue do not be misled. I just might make the time to write out another list containing his many faults and failings. Meanwhile, men, don't hate him as setting the bar too high, I have probably exaggerated in his favour, after all he is helping me towards a new PC and a girls gotta do, etc. etc.
