Graham and Hilda 1994

Love is not only for Valentine’s Day

Tuesday, 09 February 2021 by Hilda
THE BEGINNING Graham and I started our journey in love on Valentine’s Day 40 years ago. It all began on a hockey tour with our club Lorraine H.C. which was based in Dublin’s Phoenix Park. Both of us were single since the previous December and we had already been flirting a bit in the clubhouse

Incredible Wedding was Highlight of 2018

Thursday, 03 January 2019 by Hilda
We may be in 2019 but looking back to last year, there was really only one outstanding highlight from our perspective. It is nearly six months since Kirstin and Mark’s wonderful wedding at Ballymagarvey Village in County Meath and we have had great fun recently looking through the photos and the video, seeing all the

Ambulance Emergency

Call an Ambulance when there is Loss of Consciousness

Monday, 13 August 2018 by Hilda
A week ago, last Sunday evening, I dialled 999 in a panic looking for an ambulance. (I was watching television when I heard a thud as Graham hit the ground) Luckily, the person at the other end of the phone was very calm and talked me through what to do as he was regaining consciousness:

2017 Best of Rants and Random Thoughts

Wednesday, 10 January 2018 by Hilda
Some of my most popular posts last year were in the category ‘Rants and Random Thoughts’! Many of you sympathised with me when I wrote about how to stay married for 35 years without killing your husband. I told you what worked for us (well, for me) and I was delighted with the response. You

Wedded Bliss – a male perspective

Wednesday, 23 August 2017 by Hilda
Some weeks ago, I wrote a blog post with some hints for a happy marriage. Now, in his second ‘Beside the Hilda’ contribution to overthehilda, GG has offered to put a male slant on the married union! Not sure I agree with everything he wrote, but I have let him have his say without amendment!!!  When

Marriage is not for the faint-hearted- How to Stay Married for 35 Years and Not Kill your Husband

Wednesday, 26 July 2017 by Hilda
 MARRIAGE VOWS Disclosure! I have not kept all my marriage vows. Those who know me well will not be surprised and probably know which one I have broken already. In my defence, I tried my best to get out of it the night before the wedding, but our minister said it would require a special

‘Then Comes Marriage’ RTE 2 -my take!

Thursday, 02 February 2017 by Hilda
‘Then Comes Marriage’ I don’t know if many of you have been watching this programme on RTE 2. Three couples are brought together over a weekend and their relationships are analysed by psychologist Allison Keating and psychoanalyst Dr Ray O’Neill. It is a pre-marriage course of sorts. I have watched three episodes at this stage
