A couple from Lymm are today celebrating their 70th wedding anniversary.

John and June Hague, who have live in Lymm for 49 years, say the secret to their long marriage is tolerance and laughter after getting married in 1946.

John, 97, and June, 88, who have two sons, and nine great-grandchildren have spent the afternoon having lunch with their family but will be celebrating properly on Saturday.
