We've had a runway romance....

TWO strangers ended up on cloud nine after their holiday flight was delayed.

Lisa Skellon and Jamie Hobbs are getting married next month following a Sliding Doors moment at Bournemouth Airport.

They were flying separately with pals for a break in Tenerife but had to get off the plane before take-off and head back to the terminal while a problem was sorted.

The two groups of friends mingled over drinks in the departure lounge and, by the time they got back on the jet, Lisa and Jamie, both 56, were smitten.

Lisa, a personal assistant to a surveyor, said: "We are very grateful for the delay, for once in our lives, because we probably would not have met if it wasn't for that.

"We sat and had our drinks and we didn't stop looking at each other.
