Thanks for all the replies & support, it means a lot.
Not sure if I have officially retired yet, as I said I’m considering my options
fpr a couple of months at least but might try to find something a little less
stressful for a couple of years, watch this space.
All the best

Hi Nick
Congratulations on retirement.
That certainly is a big step to take and I am very envious of you as I would
love to be able to do the same
Regards
Terry

I still feel I work hard looking after other people etc. etc. and there are
never enough hours in the day but I gave up paid employment when John retired
which meant we had fifteen happy years of boating,caravanning,days out and
dog walking and of course Tvr club to enjoy together. Less income but a lot
more fun. No regrets. Cxx😘

Hello lovely people, I hope you are all well?
It seems like ages since we had the opportunity to have a proper get
together. Yes, we’ve had a couple of excellent meets over the last few
months & there’s been lots of new faces but with no major club events, race
meets etc which is totally understandable, its all been a bit quiet. At
this time of year I would usually be putting plans together for a New Year
dinner but as I type sadly I can’t see that happening, there is some talk of
TVRCC events for next year & if anything is confirmed you’ll be the first to
know.
As many of you know I’ve been having a bit of fun on the work front this
year & I recently took a huge leap of faith & quit my job! As such, I’m
unemployed/retired/god only knows what but delete as appropriate! I have no
plan/idea of what I’m going to do but the one thing I will be doing is
getting my head back together & spending quality time with family & friends
(rules permitting) who I’ve neglected for some time. A week in & I find
myself in a much better place & looking forward to the next phase of
life…watch this space. Hopefully when we next meet you will see the
difference in me & it’s getting better every day!
Back to car club stuff…next Sunday is scheduled for our Sunday meet at Teal,
as you know we cancelled the last one due to government advice & I’m quite
sure there are two sets of opinion as to whether we should have a meet or
not. What I can tell you is Teal are happy for us to be there but they have
a very strict policy in place. They are in a tier 1 area & are happy to give
us two tables of six but there can be no interaction between tables
(changing seats etc) & we would need to pre order food & have an exact list
of names/numbers beforehand.
If people still feel it’s not right to attend I totally respect that, but if
some of you wish to go ahead I’ll put the wheels in motion subject to the
Teals requirements. I’m not trying to influence people in either way as you
have to do what you feel is right.
One thing we can do within the rules (sort of) is the occasional drive & I’m
happy to keep an eye on the weather & sort something when conditions permit.
Take care everyone, & don’t forget to let me know your thoughts re next
Sunday.
All the best

lookalike with nearly 40 years’ experience in the timber trade please let me
