Eight years ago we were married on City Island - A Slice of New York City Paradise. A year earlier I asked Yirong to marry me at the local NYC beach during the annual July Fourth Fireworks celebrations and extravaganza.

On 8/10 we'll be celebrating our Happy 8th Wedding Anniversary.
Time flies when you're having fun! Love from NYC

Since being offered the post of Grade B Reporter by the BBC in 1964, Martin Bell has spent more than half a century in the unquiet corners of the world, including four years in the surrogate war zone of the House of Commons.

From Vietnam to Bosnia and beyond, the former BBC correspondent has been in the thick of it.
