A couple who met while working at a supermarket in Glasgow celebrate 28 years of marriage today.
Anne and George Smith were introduced to each other 37 years ago at Asda Maryhill.
They were friends for seven years before falling in love.
Anne Smith said: “George had already worked in Asda for three years before I started.
"I was just doing part-time work on weekends and evenings, and it wasn’t until a few years later, when I went out on a birthday night out with my sister and bumped into him.
“From then on we started catching each other’s eyes at work and got together soon after, and now here we are, 28 years married!”
The couple is still employed at the shop, marking nearly 40 years as coworkers.
Ann added: "We love working together, we’re celebrating our anniversary by enjoying a wee trip to Edinburgh for a few days and then off to Stirling.”

“Just goes to show, you might just meet your perfect match in the aisles of Asda this Valentine’s Day!”
