Family newsagent owner celebrates 80th birthday

A man who has worked at a family-run newsagent shop since he was a child has celebrated his 80th birthday.

Colin Morris began working as a paper delivery boy at GW Hurley Newsagents on Burnham-on-Sea High Street when he was eight years old.

He took over the shop, which his grandparents opened in 1919, just over 50 years ago and is the third generation to run the family business.

Mr Morris said he celebrated his birthday by sharing 80 doughnuts with his customers. "I'm getting lots of kisses from all the women in town so I can't complain," he added.
