Two friends have celebrated five decades working for Marks and Spencer in the same week.
June Blakeley and Pamela Till, both customer assistants at the high street retailer, are both celebrating 50 years at the store on Chapel Street in Southport. The pair both joined the store in 1972 and have played an important role ever since.
Each has worked in almost every department in the shop, ranging from womenswear and childrenswear to food and administration with the pair seeing massive changes in their combined century at the shop. Pam and June have both seen the transition from cheques to the first automated tills before moving on to online shopping.
