Happy Retirement Lorna

 

Lorna retires today after 43 years.  It all started on 28th July 1980, when she worked as a purchase ledger clerk for Readyuse.  Her boss back then was the accountant George Smith, and the MD was Ernie McClure.

There have been a lot of changes along the way:

?  Her bosses were Michael Clark, Kara Watt and Andrew Barry

?  Her many jobs include purchase ledger, sales ticketing and invoicing for the skip department, concrete sales and haulage invoicing, to name a few.  As stated by Lorna, 'The only thing I haven't done for the company is mix the concrete'.

?  She started with hand-written ledgers and had to adjust to the computer age with Tetra, Command Alkon and Coins

 

Now, she goes on to a new chapter in her life, which will involve many more holidays.  However, if she spends any more time in Portugal, she will need to apply for residency.  Lorna already has a couple of exciting holidays planned. 

All at Northstone wish Lorna all the best in her retirement.  You will be missed by many.
