Birthday girl dozen see a problem
Date published: 11 December 2012
Jessica Sweeney — all the 12s
SHE may be turning 12 on 12/12/12 tomorrow, but Jessica Sweeney prefers the number 13.
The Moorside schoolgirl is excited to be celebrating her 12th birthday on such a special date.
She said: “It feels strange and I think it’s quite rare to get all the 12s like this and it won’t happen again to anyone for years. But my lucky number is 13 - because Paul Sculthorpe used to wear that number when he was captain at St Helens — my favourite rugby team.”
Jessica, a pupil at St Damian’s RC Science College in Tameside, will mark her birthday with a trip to Manchester’s Christmas markets.
