High fliers: Mr and Mrs Shepley of North Landing, Flamborough (pictured above), recently celebrated their golden wedding anniversary in supersonic style by boarding Concorde at East Midlands Airport for a trip of a lifetime.

To tie the trip in with their long support of Flamborough station, notching up 30 years as head launcher, committee members and fund raisers between them, the couple took with them Mr Shepley's statuette, and silver badge, and a plaque of appreciation presented to Mrs Shepley, together with a lifeboat collecting box..
