Question 5: If you had to marry your “significant other” where you met where would the wedding be?
I’m not sure I can answer this question! No, not because I don’t want to but because I really don’t know exactly where (or when) Noreen and I first met.
Certainly it would have been somewhere on the campus of University of East Anglia in Norwich. But precisely where on campus is a mystery.
There is a good chance that we first met in the lounge bar of The Pub (the student bar) in the Student’s Union building, somewhere between Spring 1974 and early 1976. If not there then in the university residences known as Waveney Terrace, in late 1975/early 1976 when Noreen would have been visiting her then boyfriend for the weekend (she was by then working in London).

That’s when and where we first met, so according to the question that’s where any wedding would have to be. At least somewhere on the UEA campus.
After meeting a handful of times, we then more or less lost touch with each other. We didn’t start going out together until we met up again in Autumn 1978, by which time I was also in London. We actually married in September 1979 in Chiswick.
What about you? Do tell where you first met your significant other. It would be really interesting to know if there are any trends. I bet there are!

OK, so that’s the end of this series of Five Questions. I hope you’ve enjoyed it, maybe learnt something (if only about the oddness of my mind) and possibly even had a think yourself.
As before, if I can find enough good questions I may do another series, perhaps later in the year. So if you have a good question, or something you want to ask, then do please get in touch. And yes you can ask literally anything you like!
Meanwhile, in the words of the great Irish comedian, Dave Allen, “May your god go with you”.
