I met my h2b, Justin, at the \'open stage night\' at my local pub. He\'s been writing and singing songs in assorted bands since he was 12, but this was his first time playing at the Tap and Tin. I was with my best friend and it was payday, and I didn\'t have to go to work the day after. Bad, bad combination! Justin sang a few songs but because I liked them and liked his voice (and looks :D ) I started \'heckling\' him to do songs by Placebo (he sounds like the singer) or David Bowie (my mates favourite). Justin finally gave up trying to sing over us (we were clapping too) and said \'alright then, what do you want?\' and we shouted a few back...the audience were watching all this in bemusement. In the end, he said \' well, I think I can remember how to do this one...\' and sang \'Five Years\' (which he picked because it\'s off an album and only a Bowie fan would know - and love - it. We sang along - loudly - and everyone enjoyed it, so he came over to talk to us later. Me being me, I flirted with his best friend Mark (our best man!) and invited them to come to a nightclub with me and a few friends. On the walk there (half hour or so) Justin & I chatted all the way - we ended up dropping way behind the others - but I apparantly talked a lot about my boyfriend Dan. Justin was quite disappointed, but was going back to University three days later, so didn\'t worry too much. We DID exchange mobile numbers and promise to text each other - and although we dboth now insist we did, neither of us actually got them! A year and a half later, again at the tap & Tin\'s open mic night, we met up again and got chatting (in that kind of \'sitting in the corner by yourselves & ignoring everything else\' kind of way) and I referred to Dan as my ex - even though he officially wasn\'t - yet...naughty, huh?!? A few days later, Justin invited me to see his band and after he came off stage, I told him I always had had a problem with singers - I always wanted to go out with them...so did he want to go out with me? He said yes...quite quickly. So then we held hands...Two months later we got engaged, by five months we were living together, and we\'re getting married August 20th 2002 and are very very excited!
