At the age of 75, an Asda worker who has been with the supermarket ever since it opened has closed her till and decided to retire.
Audrey Weston joined the Ipswich Whitehouse Asda store 37 years ago, in September 1987, a month before the store officially opened a month later.
Over the years, she has spent time doing the morning shifts and the night shifts, however earlier this week she decided to retire.
She said: "I was employed in September, and the store opened in October '87.
"I was first on checkout for 12 years and then went on to work for the night shift for the next 18 years.
"The rest of the years I have spent on the day checkout once again.
"All of it has been a really lovely experience, but I thought I was due another birthday, 76, and I thought I was getting up there so was bound to give up sooner or later."
Mrs Weston also remembered that when she had completed 25 years at the store the retail store had treated her to a meal in Cambridge.
Bosses also handed her a certificate to celebrate her years of service.
Mrs Weston added that she is still getting used to retired life and that she will miss the people she had worked with for so many years.
"At the moment, I just feel like I am on holiday," she added.
"My retirement has only just started, and 37 years is a long while and a huge part of my life.
"I will miss it a lot, I have made many friends up there - one of them actually phoned me a little while ago just to ask me how I am getting on.
"But yeah, I am going to keep going up there and pestering them."
