REFUSE collector Norman Skinner is looking forward to lots of time with his grandchildren - and on the golf course.
After 30 years with Hambleton District Council's refuse collection service, Mr Skinner has emptied his last wheelie bin.
He has worked on rounds in Bedale and Northallerton during that time, was foreman at the council's depot and shop steward for many years.
Mr Skinner, from Northallerton, is pictured at his leaving presentation with council chairman Peter Brown.
