World's Longest-Married Couple Reveal Secrets
Husband Finds Marital Bliss in Two Small Words: 'Yes, Dear'



AP
Percy and Florence Arrowsmith say the key to a happy marriage is to not hold grudges.



LONDON (May 31) - A British couple who hold the world record for the longest marriage said on Wednesday their success was down to a glass of whiskey, a glass of sherry and the word "sorry".

Percy and Florence Arrowsmith married on June 1, 1925 and will celebrate their 80th anniversary on Wednesday.

The Guinness World Records said on Tuesday the couple held the title for the longest marriage and also for the oldest married couple's aggregate age.

"I think we're very blessed," Florence, 100, told the BBC. "We still love one another, that's the most important part."

Asked for their secret, Florence said you must never be afraid to say "sorry".

"You must never go to sleep bad friends," she said, while Percy, 105, said his secret to marital bliss was just two words: "Yes, dear."

The couple have three children, six grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren and are planning a party soon.

"I like sherry at lunch time and whiskey at night and I'm looking forward very much to my party," said Florence.

trust me...I think you'll really need it because she seems to like you even more than she likes me.

why do you always say something about me and animes?

what does it have to do with me being interested in anime? :confused:

I'm not even the only one in AD who likes animes so if you have a problem with that, then too bad.

Sigh, I was trying to make my first move, cause the posters suggested that I should.
