Childhood friends can sometimes drift, it is a part of life, but that is what makes the story of two 80-year-olds reuniting after decades apart all the more special.
Irene Gresty and Janet Henderson, used to live next door to one another when growing up in Linlithgow. Sadly the pair lost touch when Irene had to leave the area after her husband was deployed by the Navy.
But chance would have them reunited 60 years later when the pair moved into separate Bield developments in Linlithgow over the last three years. Despite the pair living just minutes apart, their paths did not cross immediately.
