Received by "surprise" e-mail February 2010
I’m writing this to let you know about something astonishing and amazing that has happened to my life in the last few months. I just felt that after all the years that you were so determined to keep David Osborne and I apart, that you should be one of the first to know, that it was a waste of time and effort, and that we’re finally together for the rest of our lives, once and for all.
We had both never changed the way we felt about each other, and had been trying at various intervals, to find out where each other was. David eventually found your website, but still didn’t get any hint as to where I might be. Purely by chance, I had an invite from an old work colleague to join them on Facebook, and used my maiden name so that any old friends from school could find me. Within half an hour I had a message from David Osborne.
We sent nearly 12,000 e-mails back and forth, but it was soon obvious that we just had to get together. He sold all his possessions, gave up his home and a very lucrative job to come home to be with me. He arrived here on January 11th, and we’ve been staying at Chris Bears house, as he’s now living in his dad’s old house.
I left David Moore to be with David, and I’ve finally got my life’s biggest wish.
I’d like to think that you can be glad for me, but that’s probably not the case, and if this upsets you, then I apologise for that, but I just had to tell you that I was right all along. He did love me then, and he still does now.
Ann and David.
Ps, We never forgot that one hour of paradise is worth a lifetime without a name!
