THE manager of a printing firm is retiring after spending 42 years working for the company.
Eric Marshall joined Hillsprint Ltd, based at Dalton, near Thirsk, as a printer in 1962.
Over the years he has worked his way up to become manager and will retire at Christmas.
His colleagues arranged a retirement party for him last week just days after he celebrated his 65th birthday. Mr Marshall, who lives at Bagby, near Thirsk, is not planning to take things easy when he starts his retirement.
"I do a lot of salmon fishing," he said. And I do a lot of things to raise money for charity, including the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
"I love walking and fishing and woodwork and gardening."
