Neither Alfred Lennon nor his fiancé wished to comment on John 's increasing interest in spiritual and chemical upliftment .
Alf and Pauline grew tired of trying to convince Pauline 's mother to allow them to get married , and equally the increasingly bizarre lifestyle John had chosen , which neither wished to comment on , nor his increasing interest in spriritual and chemical upliftment , so they eloped and were married in Gretna Green , Scotland .
