Title: Woman marries train station Post by: grahame on May 26, 2017, 17:53:37 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/women/life/woman-marries-train-station/
Quote Why not, eh? Why not marry a train station if that's what your heart truly desires? Some people love men. Some love women. Some love both. And some - or to be accurate, one person - is head-over-heels in love with a railway station. 45-year-old Carol says she's been smitten with Santa Fe station in California since she was a young girl, and so decided to make her relationship with the place official. The nuptials have not been officially recognised by the government, but Carol says she and the station tied the knot nearly 18 months ago, and they have been very happily wed ever since. "When we got married, I stood there and I told her that I take it as my partner," says Carol, who calls the station 'Daidra'. "It was the happiest day of our lives." She visits the station every day, travelling 45 minutes by bus to visit her spouse. "When I get there I say hello to her - I then walk around the block circling around her, trying not to let anyone notice I am talking," she says. "There is a private bit where two walls meet, I go there to touch her, which I do by leaning against her with my clothes on. "When I'm touching her, I feel as though it actually holds me and kisses me. I don't have physical sex with the station in public, I want to be respectful.

"I'll tell you who's mad, pal: anyone who marries a station..." Still, each to their own, eh?

Title: Re: Woman marries train station Post by: John R on May 27, 2017, 22:45:07 It's bound to be a failure. Put in the three letter code WED, and you get a station without any trains.
