A 120-year old bridegroom

Hazi Abdul Noor, a 120-year old Indian, got married last Sunday in a little village in the north-east of India. Salima Khatun, his first wife, died six years ago. Because of his age, he needed someone to take care of him, so he asked his son to find a new bride. It was a difficult task, but he finally found a 60-year old widow, named Samoi Bibi. This woman, who had no children, gained a family of 122 members.

Un jeune marié âgé de 120 ans


Samedi dernier, à Satghori, un petit village Indien, c'est un mariage pour le moins insolite qui a été célébré. En effet, Hazi Abdul Noor, le "jeune" marié, est en réalité centenaire, plus précisément âgé de 120 ans. Six années auparavant, après avoir perdu sa femme, il a demandé à ses enfants de lui trouver une épouse qui pourrait prendre soin de lui. Après plusieurs années de recherches infructueuses, ils ont finalement trouvé la perle rare en la personne de Samoi Bibi, une veuve de 60 ans, qui s’est du coup retrouvée à la tête d’une famille de 122 membres.

Antonin by Valentine

Antonin is one of the most good-tempered-guys I've ever met. He's most of the time very calm and doesn't get upset easily. If he can be very shy somtimes, he is also really tactful and he's the kind of people you can rely on. As he can't bear liars, he expects his friends to be honnest. He's afraid of spiders; enormous spiders and tiny spiders, strange for a boy who plays violent video games, with a lot of blood, explosions and deaths.

Valentine.
