God bless them...secret to 80 yr marriage...

...'Yes dear'
Two English centenarians celebrating their world-record
80th wedding anniversary Wednesday attribute their success
to two words -- "Yes, dear." Percy Arrowsmith, 105, and
his 100-year-old bride Florence of Hereford told reporters
they plan a family party to celebrate their marriage on
June 1, 1925, with their three elderly children, six
grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. The Mirror
said Florence did most of the talking to reporters as she
summed up "yes, dear" and other tips for a healthy
relationship. "You must never be afraid to say sorry,"
she said as her husband nodded. He nodded again when she
advised against going to bed with an unresolved quarrel.
"We still love one another -- that's the most important
part," she said, to which her husband responded: "Yes,
dear."

~Of course the wife is still doing all the talking ; )
