When Ivena Smailes was asked what she wanted for her 105th birthday, she had a rather simple request. All she wanted was a fireman covered in tattoos to hand-deliver her a cake to the third floor of her care center. While ‘Aunty Ivy’ probably wasn’t expecting the request to come true, the Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service are men of action, and they didn’t want to let the woman down.
