A shared love of cycling led to sixty years of marriage for an Oxford couple.

Anthony 'Tom' Sawyer, now 81, met Kathleen Hunt, now 79, while working in a bike shop in Headington and their romance flourished on countryside cycle rides.

The couple, of Lambourn Road, Rose Hill, have celebrated their diamond wedding anniversary and got a telegram from the Queen.

Mr Sawyer, a retired toolmaker, said: "She's definitely a soulmate."

They have two daughters, two grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren.
