One of my primary pleasures in life is making lists, so over the next five days,to celebrate our upcoming 10th wedding anniversary I decided to write about the 10 most significant films in mine and Terry’s relationship. 1) Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone I can remember the very first conversation I had with Terry […]
