SIR: My wife and I would like to say a very big thank you to the retiring Mayor and Mayoress, Cllr Alan Rushton and his wife, Audrey, for the wonderful way in which they made themselves at home when they came to visit us on our Diamond Wedding Day and presented us with a lovely bouquet.
My wife had only been out of Bolton General Hospital for just over a day and what a difference it made to us both.
They made our day, with their wonderful smiles, a day we will never forget. We would also like to thank the Mayor's secretary, Sally Hayes, for making all this possible by taking a copy of our wedding certificate and sending it to the Queen, from whom we received a telegram. We would also like to thank the Bolton Evening News for their lovely photograph.
F and H Worsley, Bolton
