    If it's any consolation, I've been married 10 years and not remembered one yet

    Good job they stuck the date of my wedding on the inside of the ring or I'd never know when it was beyond being at some point in May and I'm still not entirely sure on the exact date of the wife's birthday (although the margin of error for this date is down to two days now).

    (My wife also made me engrave the date of our anniversary on the inside of my wedding ring so I would never forget!)

    Re: I've just been reminded......

    Thanks for the congratulations :)

    I've just booked a table at her favourite restaurant for this evening, and called her to tell her I'll collect her from her office at 7pm. She seems to be thawing a little (phew!)

    Oh, and the date of our wedding is engraved inside my wedding ring too, but I forgot to look there :D

    My wife and I both forgot this year! Its in August though and we were on holiday, so busy out and about sight seeing. During the evening my wife was filling in a form for something and said "Oh, whoops, its our anniversary today. Happy anniversary". That's after only 8 years.

    Good man....otherwise she might have scratched the date on the crystal of your favourite watch so you'd never forget again!

    Mine today as well, 8 years. I'm working away at the moment and remembered in plenty of time but still forgot to post the card, that I had for a month, in time. Still, she will have to have long arms to get me this time :lol: .

    Fortunately my anniversary is easy to remember as my wedding was only 3 days after the happiest day of my life - Liverpool wining the Champions League.

    :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Re: I've just been reminded......

    You'd have remembered if she'd have asked you what you wanted :D

    Bug*er, ours was in August!!!!

    Oh well..

  26. #26

    Re: I've just been reminded......

    Do what I did and you won't ever forget.........more accurately, you won't need to remember........live in sin :lol:



    edit - I realise that my advice is a bit late for you, never mind, congrats anyway :wink:

    You need to get yourself a new watch with an annual alarm reminder :mrgreen:

    Its normally the other way round with me and my missus, I am better than her at remembering dates, and normally book up weekends away as surprises. Thats why I don't have that many watches!

    Weve been celebrating our anniversary on the 21st of April for the past 5 years, she was recently looking through the wedding photos and saw the cake clearly had the 20th on it :D ( we got married abroad and told no one, so as no one else was there, there has been on one to correct us :lol: )

    Congratulations Rich...
    Cheers..

    Re: I've just been reminded......

    Had a similar event earlier this year.

    I completely forgot our wedding anniversary. On the said day, I got up in the morning and did my usual run around complaining I was running late for work.

    During that afternoon, I received a text message from my missus reminding me that it was our wedding anniversary. I sent a text immediately saying that I remembered and thought that it was she who forgot our special day.Reminded her that I was waiting for her to say something first. I know my pants are on fire here

    Immediately, I booked dinner for two at a local, bought a card and gift and arrived home in the evening after work. Well sorted :)

    Then again, after 15 years one would forget one day eventually :D

    Re: I've just been reminded......

    Happened to me on our 15th, I was working away from home and up against a serious deadline, I didn't know what month it was, let alone the day - she let it fester for weeks before suddenly slamming it down in the middle of a minor altercation over something trivial.



    Every year since, I have been so nervous I have to phone around my siblings as the month approaches, cross-checking that I've got the right date. :blackeye:

    Re: I've just been reminded......

    Well, I collected my beloved from her office at 7pm as promised, and drove her to Kensington to her favourite restaurant. A bottle of champagne and some nice food later and I was forgiven (I was driving, so she drank most of the champagne - this probably helped, come to think of it :D ).

    She didn't even mind when, once we'd got home, I spent 20 minutes on the phone speaking to a TZ-UKer about a trade

    Well, no more dates to remember (or forget) now until her birthday in February :wink:

    Not married yet, but our relationship anniversary is on 11th November. Some say a sad day, but every one wears a poppy to remind me.... Oh and the other half is German :mrgreen: makes it much sweeter knowing we won .... She's not overly impressed!

    And you got no dirty looks, knives under the pillow?

    Ours was in August-19th. We hit double figures this year.

    A lot of people say I have a great mind for remembering dates. Know all my cousins,aunts,uncles bdays. Also their Anniversaries. Just a lucky ability I suppose.

    No, not a U1. Actually I was on the phone discussing selling one of my watches, and agreed a price when the buyer mentioned a watch he had bought recently which he was thinking of moving on. Well I like them, and I've often wondered if I should buy one (after seeing DaveE's at a get-together some time ago), so I suggested we work it into the trade. I thought my wife would understand - she had just had a slap up meal and taxi home, so I figured I should have an anniversary present too :D

    You'll have to wait for pictures - probably Friday or the weekend ;)

    Congratulations. And thanks. Seeing this thread made me remember that mine was in the last few days. I called my wife to find out when it was, but she couldn't remember the exact date either. (19 years.)

    Best wishes,
    Bob

    Re: I've just been reminded......

    Iv'e done the same a few times and we have been together 38 years and married nearly 31!,have a nice meal ready for her{nip to the chippy!} and a few tins of good quality lager too, she will soon forget as you snuggle down to look at the latest watches for sale on sc,but remind her your looking for that special something that may be there for her :wink:and NOT a watch for yourself or she could get a little suspicious :roll: ,and revert to type ie irritable/suspicious/irrational/annoying/quiet or very talkative {loudly}or possibly both of these as they can multitask,I may have missed a few thousand more traits particular to this animal form but we know them as we are subjected to them as most unusual and annoying when they surface,try to be in other company if at all possible as they tend to show the most loving feelings towards you,but be aware that this can and usually does change quite rapidly once alone with her :lol: :lol: :lol: ,and all indictaions of any impending one on one action in the bedroom :wink: were all false indictators,unless you did read them as a ''throwing thing's at you'' sign.
    anyway have a very nice anniversary and if you survive let us all know how you brought her around in the end :lol: if at all :!: .
