A Shropshire boy is celebrating his ninth birthday today - on the ninth of the ninth 2009.A Shropshire boy is celebrating his ninth birthday today - on the ninth of the ninth 2009. The numerical spook has done little to unnerve Max Gurney, from Lawley Gate, Telford, except to get some teasing from his brothers. The Lawley Primary School pupil today celebrates his last year in single digits but turned down the chance of a birthday party in favour of going to football training. Mum Alison Gurney said: "The dates are just very unusual. Max doesn't think there's anything superstitious about it, the only thing he has got about it is a bit of teasing from his brothers. "I contacted his school and I wanted them to sing happy birthday to him at nine minutes past nine, but they do not meet in assembly until 9.30am, so his year class are going to do it instead. "But Max decided he didn't want a party because his football training was on and that's always his priority, but we will make the day special for him." For the full story see today's Shropshire Star
