Alina and Heneck
This very special couple have a wonderful story. I wish I could remember the detail! They met as refugees from Poland when they were children, having been shipped to India during the second world war. On their travels they passed by the tip of Africa and ended up in England, where they were sent to Huddersfield, in Yorkshire, where they have lived ever since. They have 3 lovely daughters, Liz, Grazjina and Niunia (my best friend!). They were blessed with two grandsons, two granddaughters and four great grandchildren.
I giggled to myself, when we asked Alina how she did it! "Normal!" she said, "we've had our ups and downs!"

Congratulations Alina and Heneck - looking forward to celebrating your Platinum Anniversary with you!
