How it all began
It all started on the 24th March 2018, Liddy was out celebrating her birthday when her friend Georgie introduced them both. Liddy made a bit of a fool of herself which made Tom laugh and the next day Tom asked for Liddy’s number, taking her out on a date to Digbeth the weekend after. On the 24th April they made it official and Liddy was introduced to ‘Quiff’s’ friends at a birthday party, getting the seal of approval from the Wexco Lads. Not long after, they went on their first trip away together to Budapest, discovering their joint love of travel. It was after one of their trips away, this time to Krakow, that Liddy asked Tom to move in with her. The next few years brought more trips, apartment moves and sadly the passing of Tom’s Dad & Liddy’s Nan. These loses & grief bonded Tom & Liddy together, growing wiser and stronger in themselves and as a couple. During Lockdown 2021 Tom & Liddy had saved enough money to buy their first house together, which they moved into on the 24th June that year.
“I saw her across the dance floor and I couldn’t look away until I had the guts to ask for her number.”
— Tom
“We caught eye contact when he was leaving, he waved and I waved back, turns out he wasn’t waving at me, but it made him laugh anyway”
— Liddy
The renovation project provided an opportunity to learn new skills together and a good distraction from what was going on in the world. In 2022 life mostly returned back to normal with Liddy back to flying and Tom busier than ever at work it seemed like the perfect time to add a cute & fluffy pet to the household, on the 24th September 2022 Coco was welcomed into the Bishop/Roby home. That Christmas Tom & Liddy took a trip to New York, which had been a dream of Liddy’s. They ate the best pizza they’d ever had, drank cocktails in the quirkiest bars, they ice skated under the Rockefeller Christmas tree and on the 30th December 2022, at the Top of the Rock, watching the sunset over the busy city, Tom got down on one knee and asked Liddy to marry him.
Liddy & Tom
And the rest is history
Liddy & Tom have chosen the 24th August 2024 as the number 24 has been a key number throughout their relationship; it’s also said to be a lucky year as when you add 2024 together this equals to 8 which is the infinity symbol of eternal love and trust
