Well thats that then !!

Post by Pete & Lin » Thu Aug 01, 2013 5:41 pm

After running my own company for the past 30 year's, today I finally retired :thumbsu:

Been running around like a headless chicken since 6:30 this morning visiting clients & finally got home at 11:30 - job done.

Didn't know I was so highly regarded (got quite emotional at times), client's new contractors have been told they have a tough act to live up to :lol:

Now it's time for some serious MG playtime :lol:


I'VE RETIRED - ROLL ON MGFIM2013

Hi, Pete.

You beat me to it - I was going to start a "happy retirement" thread.

Anyway, enjoy your retirement you've worked hard for it. You'll soon be wondering how you ever found time for work given all the things you actually want to do.

I hope it's a long, happy and healthy one!

Regards

Brian

    I bet the breakfast in bed doesn't last for long if Lin has her way. Enjoy it while you can!!
