Europe’s oldest McDonald’s worker has celebrated his 90th birthday with colleagues.
歐洲最老的麥當勞員工與同事一起慶祝他的90歲生日。
Bill Dudley is still ’lovin’ it’ and has no plans to quit the fast-food joint in Mold, Flintshire, north Wales. ‘It helps me stay young and I just keep going,’ said Bill, who has worked there for the last nine years. Wife Margaret, 71, has nicknamed her hubby Old McDonald.
比爾．杜德利仍然「愛它」，而且不打算辭掉在這家北威爾斯弗林特郡莫爾德市的速食連鎖店的工作。「它有助於我保持年輕，而我只是繼續下去，」過去9年在此工作的比爾說。他71歲的妻子瑪格麗特給丈夫取了「老麥當勞」的綽號。
Prior to his current role at McDonald’s, Bill, from Connah’s Quay, served in the royal navy during the Second World War and was presented with the Arctic Medal by Russian premier Vladimir Putin in 2013.
在麥當勞現在的工作之前，來自康納斯碼頭區的比爾在二次世界大戰期間服役於皇家海軍，2013年還獲當時的俄羅斯總理普廷頒贈北極勳章。
Having worked as a delivery boy at a bakery before war broke out, Bill went on to work at Shotton Steel, spent time as a crane driver and also ran his own taxi firm. The restaurant was adorned with balloons and decorations to mark his birthday yesterday.
大戰爆發前，比爾擔任麵包店的送貨小弟，後來他在休頓鋼鐵公司工作，他開過起重機，也經營自己的計程車行。速食餐廳昨天以氣球、飾品裝飾店內，為他慶生。
Stewart Williams, franchisee of McDonald’s in Mold, where Bill still does six-hour shifts on Wednesdays and Thursdays each week said：’Bill is very well respected and a real asset to us.’
麥當勞莫爾德市加盟店店長史都華．威廉斯說：「比爾深受敬重，他是我們寶貴的人才。」比爾每週的週三、週四，仍在該處擔任6小時的輪班工作。
’He is fantastic with all the customers who love him. Some come in regularly just to see Bill. Bill is a great role model to our younger members of staff. We wouldn’t want to be without him and he is welcome to work here as long as he wants.’
「他與所有顧客相處融洽，他們都愛他，有些人定期上門，就是為了來看看比爾。比爾是我們年輕職員很棒的榜樣，我們不想失去他，所以只要他願意，歡迎他在這裡工作。」
