Bill's special day on Wednesday was marked with a cake and tickets for a weekend away. McDonalds hailed the great-grandfather as 'a real asset' to the team. 'I didn't expect such a nice surprise,' Bill said. 'But I suppose it's not every day that you turn 90. 'I still enjoy working. I come here two days-a-week, which not only gets me out of the house but I honestly love it.

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. '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. He says they keep him young but he is a real character and an inspiration to everyone. 'We wouldn't want to be without him and he is welcome to work here as long as he wants.'
