Not over ‘tyred’ after 49 years By Andrea FERRARI FORTY-NINE candles were lit on Neil McAlpine’s long service celebration cake, almost proving too much for the red velvet decoration to handle. With a small fire quickly averted and the cake adjusted, the candles were relit and blown out, with Neil flashing his trademark smile. For the 69-year-old manager at Bridgestone Select Tyre & Auto in Coffs Harbour, 49 years of service is not too much. Customers say they find him friendly and knowledgeable. Neil still loves going to work each day.
