Ron and Norma Bond, who live in Aslacton, are set to celebrate their diamond wedding anniversary on Thursday, July 22.
Having met in London in November 1960, the pair married just eight months later at St Johns’s Church in East Dulwich, before moving to Long Stratton in 1969.
They initially lived at Lime Tree Avenue, but decided to take on the Queen’s Head pub in 1972 – where they remained for seven years.
