The writer, songwriter and broadcaster Joe Julian Farrugia has written a sentimental social media post, reminiscing on the day he married his wife, Marlene, exactly 37 years ago today.
He remembers that it was a day with both sunny and stormy weather – a good metaphor for any relationship, that the writer himself acknowledges with a reflection on the past 37 years, that have been filled with the peaks and troughs that life brings.
He also recognises the fact that if it weren’t for that special day so many years ago, their beloved children Clara, Valentina, Hazel and Julian wouldn’t have come along, affectionately referring to them as the couple’s reason for living.
Happy anniversary to the loving couple!
