　　Sally and Colin Dunn,UK, have finally walked down the aisle after a whopping 44 years of dating. While most couples wouldn't wait that long, Sally and Colin, both in their 80s, say it's never too late.

　　They met in 1972 at Colin's local social club where Sally worked behind the bar. It wasn't long before they started dating and their relationship flourished.

　　But after becoming empty nesters and experiencing the difficult loss of his brother, Colin decided 2016 would be the year.
