A man and his wife were invited to dinner by their elderly neighbours.

The old gentleman endearingly preceded every request to his wife with 'Honey,' 'Darling,' 'Sweetheart,' 'Pumpkin,' etc.

The guests were impressed since the couple had been married almost 70 years.

While the wife was off in the kitchen, the man said to the gentleman, "I think it's wonderful that after all the years you've been married, you still refer to your wife in those terms."

The elderly husband just hung his head. "Actually, I forgot her name about 10 years ago".
