Martine & Rob

Rob and I met in October 2018 after having exchanged a few messages through Christian Connection. We met for our first date in York as I lived in Nottingham and he lived in Durham. We both like to cycle so our first date was a 30 miles bike ride in the area around York. We stopped for lunch and tea and cake, of course. That first date was a lot of fun.

We visited each other after that in our respective places and when the pandemic hit we “bubbled” up together.

Rob proposed to me in December 2021 on top of Blencathra, a hill in the Lake District in the snow, after an exhilarating climb!

We got married in April 2022 and Rob has moved to Nottingham. We are both involved in our Baptist church as well as enjoying visiting friends and family and we go on cycling and walking holidays. We are both very grateful to have met thanks to being on Christian Connection.
