Vivian (91) and Alice (90) were in love for more than seven decades. They have enjoyed being together all of those years and have done some serious travelling - most of the U.S, Canada and England (twice!) "We've had a good time" said Alice.
Keeping a relationship going for over 70 years takes lots of love and a lot of effort. Especially when the world frowns - and the law prohibits - such a relationship.
But now the law has caught up with the heart.
You might have your opinion for or against gay marriage - that's your business. The important thing is that these two wonderful ladies obviously fully agree with the principle - Age No Limit. As they say - it is never too late for a new chapter in life.
