After a brief and hilarious courtship, they got married in a small Presbyterian Chapel in North London. Her people came and her mother shed a tear when it was announced that the newly-wed couple would go to Africa. From that day,her world collapsed.

Nor did she know that her honeymoon would be a hurried affair in Brighton.She wept most of the time on board the M.V Apapa that took them to Africa. Eight years and her temper grew worse.
