Life has a crazy way of bringing people together, and back together. The colourful individuals in this story come from different backgrounds and have led quite eventual lives individually, and together. This week's love story belongs to Christine and Chris from Fort Langley, BC. They met at age 16 in the UK working at a butcher shop, near the end of the Second World War.  Christine was an impressionable young woman who ended up belly dancing in the Middle East for a famous pop star. Chris was a keen choirboy who was rescued from the rubble when his home was hit by a bomb. 

After many plot twists and turns, including a famous engagement, love letters and a night in jail,  they have been together nearly 60 years.

You can read all about this entertaining story in the book, "The Choirboy and the Belly Dancer" written by Christine over the pandemic.
