ALTHOUGH Joe Melling found working at Daniel Thwaites a truly uplifting experience he has now called time on his association with the Blackburn-based brewery.
For 65-year-old Joe has retired after 12 years as a fork lift truck driver within Thwaites' packaging department.
Joe, of Mari Court, Intack, said: "I only came initially on a temporary arrangement, but it soon developed into a full-time post and I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Thwaites."
He received presents and good wishes from his colleagues at a special presentation held at the brewery, at which he was accompanied by his wife, Lorenza.
