Lovers Reunited After 17 years
A British man and his Spanish former
love have finally married 16 years after
they drifted apart, reunited by a love letter
lost behind a fireplace for over a decade,
Will and Guy have discovered.
Steve Smith and Carmen Ruiz-Perez,
both now 42, fell in love 17 years ago
when she was a foreign exchange student
in Brixham, southwest England, and
got engaged after only a year together.
Their relationship ended after she moved
to France to run a shop in Paris. A few
years later, in a bid to rekindle their love,
in Spain. It was placed on the mantelpiece,
but slipped down behind the
fireplace and was lost for over a decade.
The missing letter was only found when
builders removed the fireplace during
-Perez
film. We met up and fell in love all over
Smith said, after the couple
married last Friday.

Valentine Love Failure -
Passion Extinguished
down after making a giant heart out of
blazing candles. Hannes Pisek, 20, from
Hoenigsberg in the province of Styria,
used 220 candles to make a huge heart
on the floor of his flat. He then lit them
and went to pick up his girlfriend from
work - but the plan backfired when the
flat caught fire. Pisek was left out in the
cold as firemen battled to bring the blaze
under control. He has now lost his home
and his girlfriend - she left him afterwards
and has moved back with her parents.

Valentine Love Story cont. from pg.1
Juliet, who was in seat 2B, and Michael,
who was in 2C, hit it off instantly.
Sadly, Michael was too shy to
ask Juliet for her number. He confirmed
this on the Victoria Derbyshire
show on BBC Radio 5 Live today.
[ October 2006]
He pined for her so much after they
parted that he contacted the airline and
begged bosses to ask her to get in
touch. They obliged and Juliet, 29,
phoned him and they agreed to go out
to dinner. A whirlwind romance followed
and they are to get married next
month. Juliet, who now lives with Mi-
dreams of a fairytale romance and you
