Harrumph or Hurrah!
Wee little yellow envelope in hand, fortunate that I got what I wanted.
To be honest, what a fantastic twenty five years but when it's time to go it's time to go.
The camerarderie and flying will be sorely missed and my vocabulary doesn't quite stretch to define my thoughts on the situation as a whole.
Enough to say that I am proud to have done my bit, will miss the flying tremendously, will doff a cap to those that have gone before and shake the hands and offer advice to those pushing on.
Per Ardua Ad Astra my friends . . . . .
