Good luck - but look on the bright side.

 

You can now get a 'real' computer and no need to say "sorry I must have missed that bit", or " I'm on my phone, can you tell me where it says that?"

[Hawkmoth]

Good luck John, we'll miss you and all the hard work you have put in the boating community.

As someone also leaving the water I think I know a little of how you feel.

All the best

I must have missed the bit where you need a boat to participate in the forum!

 

Best wishes for you and your mum - you only get one mum.

Good luck John. I'm glad we got the chance to meet you on the cut before it was too late.

Shame your leaving, I found the first 30 years were the worst, but now 20 years later its going down hill again.

Crumbs. Threads will become 25% shorter! And less sane.

What a fortunate mum to have you as her son. I wish you all the best.

[Peter-Bullfinch]

Well done John for all the efforts you have made on behalf of all of us boaters by talking directly with C&RT on a really wide range of issues. You have also helped individuals too. Your work is very much appreciated I am sure.

Linda and I are heading to Sharpness too. Maybe we might catch up.

[Jerra]

As others have said don't stop posting on the forum you have the experience, knowledge and more importantly clear insight.

 

Good luck and best wishes for the future. A hard but sensible decision.

[bizzard]

Yes, keep posting John and all the very best.

[bigcol]

Again all the very best,by the amount of posts from forum members wishing you well, you've earnt a lot of respect, are appreciated.

The forum will indeed mis you posts. Good luck for the future

You could always have your boat lifted and put in Poole'harbour, safe and a lovely harbour, plenty of adventures surely there?

 

 

All the best

[Janet S]

John, as Col mentioned, could you not find somewhere safe to keep Gemma Joy whilst you care for your mum?

 

I'm sure there are plenty of forum members who would be happy to help out by checking on the boat regularly. You so obviously love your boating.

 

Whatever, I hope you continue to contribute to the forum.

 

All the best.

[larkshall]

John, you are a brave man. Though completely honourable. I have always enjoyed your posts immensely over the years. I hope you re-adjust to life ashore without any problems. It's a pity you can't rent Gemma joy out,

[Drayke]

Good luck to you John, it sounds like you’re going to be very buzzy traveling between family members.

 

Fred.
