And ME, Dave! We chatted online almost daily for a whole year - during which time it became apparent we'd so much in common. We shared the same values ... both of us were widowed and practising Christians ... aside from the fact that Myrna is Roman Catholic (although one of her brothers is a part-time Protestant Pastor!) and I'm Church of Scotland.

Finally, in September 2008, I visited the Phils for 3 weeks ... when it it was confirmed that each of us more than lived up to the other's expectations. Then - being retired - I was able to return in late November of the same year ... and we married on December 8. On the second occasion, I stayed there for three months while Myrna applied for her Spousal Visa ... which was granted less than a week after I'd gone back to Scotland [alone!]. She'll have been here in Perth for exactly 2 years on March 11.
