Babs and John

Ian

We have known you for many, many years, we have celebrated together on many occasions from the birth of children to your wedding to England beating Germany 5-1 in the world cup qualifier.

Pauline and I are best friends and you and John get on very well too. We have all spent many happy holidays together in America and also Keswick, in fact the week in October in the Lakes is now a Leadley Wilson tradition.

Christmas at Mill House would not be the same without you.

Ella and Noah both enjoy your jokes, stories and pictures as did Carl, Sam, Emma and Chrissie and who can forget Ella with her joke book on your knee for ages reading to you.

You have followed us around England and the world when John was in the RAF so it is only fitting that John and I should follow you to Ireland to help you celebrate this most auspicious birthday.

Happy birthday Ian and many more
Love and best wishes
Babs and John
