My job as a teacher was translated into "Anything we tell you to do" once I was over. They told me and two other girls to paint all the public toilets for our first week, which we did. Then this guy turned up to replace the ceiling tiles in the toilets and we got talking.
He was the son of the maintenence manager working on his summer off from college.
Although he didn't speak of it, (someone else told us) he was on the rebound from a girl who'd just left him, but I could tell (that smell of sadness and desperation) After I made it clear I had a boyfriend back home he promptly asked a different girl out and started rebounding all over her. They lasted about 2 weeks.
Couple of months later after he'd been following me around a lot, (he had a copy of my work schedule and would co-incidentally turn up where ever I was working) he invited me to a party, I went and it turned out to be a set-up, just him and another couple knocking back the booze. He gave me a mix of red wine and champagne in the same glass to drink and I got completely shit faced. He then attached himself to my face for the next hour. I avoided him like the plague for the next week until finally I gave in when he asked me to go for a walk and he'd set up a picnic blanket outside surrounded by candles.
We moved in together 3 weeks later. A year and a half later we were married.

Oh bugger! I would have thought he was a liability on a boat with crutches. Still maybe you'd have had to cancel your UK trip if he came home.

Will your husband stay with the ship? Hope it's not too bad a break.
We met in Greece many moons ago.

Re: How did you meet..........
First met my OH when I was 16, but he was living with a pig dog at the time, about to get married ect, he was 23 and even though we got on really well, he decided I was far too young for him and he was very loyal to the kanine he was living with...
Anyhoo, met him again when I was 18, by this time he had seen the light and got rid of the pig dog, well to cut a long story short, I was in the pub with my mates, pissed as a fart when he walked in, he still says to this day he didn't know I was the same person, with being a hairdresser my hair colour changed weekly, also two years had passed and I had filled out a bit...
Well, to cut a long story short, I was pissed, my young hormones were raging and I was as horny as a sow on heat, anyway I coaxed him into the toilet where we ended up having a shag. The rest is history, been married 17 years this October...
