Tony & Elaine Harrop of School Aycliffe celebrated their Golden Wedding Anniversary last weekend by taking all their family to Spain, for a five day celebration in the sun!
Tony & Elaine came to live in Newton Aycliffe in 1982, when there were just the six of them. In total 23 members of the family of them went to Spain and thoroughly enjoyed the sun, celebrations and the party atmosphere provided by the hotel.
The golden couple along with their eldest son Darren, daughter Jaki & twins Mark & Phil are all directors of Workshop Supplies on Aycliffe Business Park. Getting time off together can be quite difficult, but the send a big thank you to their staff Simon Elliot, Richard Ross & Ben Calder who took over in their absence, allowing the 50 year celebrations to go ahead without a hitch.
