OUR STORY
Jacqueline and Michael had noticed each other before at night clubs in Potchefstroom. He was very aware of the “attractive ginger”. She often saw the group of English guys who always stood on the exact same spot in the club.
They were introduced by a mutual friend one night. He, slightly drunkenly, delivered one of the smoothest lines of all time: “I love every bone in your body” and she, without hesitation, having seen the fantastic movie Fired Up, replied in glorious fashion: “especially yours?”. This, frankly terrible exchange, sparked what would become a truly beautiful relationship.
After that initial encounter, he invited her for coffee a few times – she always said no. He persisted, until she finally said yes... A whole 8 months later. Victory. The coffee date went extremely well. Afterwards she rode off on her little yellow scooter, which subsequently broke down in the most inopportune place (but that, is a story in itself).
“Close your eyes”, the words she said to him moments before giving him a kiss on the cheek; their “first” kiss - two days after their coffee date. This, the 26th of May 2010, was exactly a week before he asked her be his lady – just outside a fine drinking establishment, a wonderful homage to their first meeting. Just like that, on the 2nd of June 2010, the lifelong institution of Michael and Jax was founded.
