78th wedding anniversary... WOW!

Lifetime lovers Frank and Anita Milford have become Britain's longest-married living couple after celebrating their 78th wedding anniversary.

The pair met as teenagers at a dance in Plymouth, southern England, in 1926 and married two years later.

Asked for the secret of their enduring union, Frank Milford, 98, a retired dock worker, was quoted in Wednesday's edition of the The Daily Telegraph as saying: "We don't always see eye to eye and we do have a small argument every day. But that comes and goes. We are always here for each other."

His 97-year-old wife added: "The key is give and take and lots of laughter."

"These days marriages don't last long. A lot of people get married with the idea that if it doesn't work out there's no worry, but we can't understand that."

Elaine Clarke, a senior care assistant at the Warwick Park Nursing Home, said of the couple: "It is very rare to see something like this. They are always by each other's side."

"They are still very much in love," she added.
