One couple's love story began with visits to one of their house's after sport, followed by having milkshakes together, and has gone from strength to strength over the last 60 years.

You could say it was a boy meets girl story - Margaret moved to the Highlands in the first year of high school, and met her future husband Warren through him playing hockey with her brothers.
Warren Webb would go over to Margaret's after the team finished playing, which was when the pair learned more about each other.
Mr Webb, who has had over four generations of his family call the Highlands home, joked that he visited often because her home had "one of the first televisions in Moss Vale".
The pair became well acquainted and then started going out together, went to dances and got engaged two years later.
They then tied the knot on a "stinking hot" February 3, in 1962, at the Church of England in Moss Vale.
Their wedding day even made the front page of the Southern Highland News.
Mr and Mrs Webb welcomed their children Carol, Bruce and Janelle into their lives, and their family has kept on growing.
They have 11 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren, with a third on the way.
"I think the biggest thing was the first grandchild and all of the grandchildren after that, they're such good kids," Mrs Webb said.
The couple celebrated their anniversary with family members and most of their bridal party on February 5 in Robertson.
Mrs Webb, a "keen gardener", said "having health and a home and family around you, and nice things you... and a garden and animals" were many things she loved about her marriage.
She also said there were many parts of her husband she loved.
"I don't think I can say a main thing about Warren, we can always talk things out," she said.
"It can't be that hard of a question, we've had 60 years on us," Mr Webb said when he was asked the same question about his spouse.
"She's just a dedicated person with all she does with the family."
The pair have created many memories travelling around the Northern Territory and Western Australia, taking their children to sports, going to Old Time Dances, and caring for farm animals.
The pair still care for calves, tend to the garden and are also passionate about the local community.
"We're still doing what we're doing all these years, the neighbours and family are a good help," Mr Webb, a former dairy farmer said.
"You got to be into what you're doing."
"I'm very dedicated to my town and pretty much keep everything local, cause if you don't support people, it's very hard," Mrs Webb, a former member of the Moss Vale United Hospital Auxiliary said.
"I got a lot of hobbies and I'm never bored, because I always got something on the go."
Mr Webb said he would do it all again.
"Looking back, if you asked if I would do it again I would say 'yeah, why not?'" he said.
The couple also received congratulatory letters from the Queen, the Prime Minister, the Governor General, the NSW Premier and their local member.
