When Paul first saw Linda.
They met eyes across a crowded room in 1967, and Paul says he fell in love at first sight. They were married in 1969, raised four children together, and spent every single night together until her death in 1998. Paul: "I always think of Linda still as my girlfriend. That's how we started out in the '60s, just as friends. Whenever I was working late somewhere, I just never fancied it. I thought: Well, I could stay overnight in this posh hotel, or I could go home to Linda. And it was always the brighter of the two options: Yeah, go home to Linda. It was just I liked being with her, quite frankly."
