Lauren McLeish

She was there

In September 1995, a baby girl came along, completing the family of Mr & Mrs McLeish. They met in the coastal town of South Shields, in the North East of England, in August 1994. She was a barmaid, he was a soldier who was on leave and decided to spend his time with a colleague who lived there. They said it was love at first sight. Once their eyes locked; they simply had to be together - and it was very telling that they married in the January of 1995, leading to that honeymoon baby nine months later.
