I HOPE Mary Wary had a happy 30th birthday on Monday.

Some kind soul had taken the trouble to let everyone know of her big day by displaying posters all along Lower Leigh Road, Westhoughton, and Schofield Lane, Atherton.

Her rhyming name took me back to early teenage days in Kenilworth Drive, Leigh, where two neighbours had the poetic names of Ivy Spivey and Minnie Finney. I don't know why but they've stuck with me all my life. Do you have a matching name? Let me know.
