Bon Voyage Jonsie

[Cleoriff]

I am going to start this thread in order wish @jonsie all the very best.

Tomorrow he flies to Thailand for good. A new life for him. He has promised to stay in touch with us all.

I hope so because he is such a well respected, knowledgeable member of the forum and has been helping people on here for years. His sense of humour is unique....

I have never met him but feel I he is the greatest friend. He helped and supported me when I crept onto this forum, technophobically challenged, a few years ago. (I am still 'challenged' but hey...much better than I was)

Anyway... I am not writing this as any type of eulogy or epitaph. He is very much alive and kicking. I just feel it's important to wish him well in his new life.

Bon Voyage Steve.

All the best @jonsie, thanks for your help since I joined the forum

As we say here "Maach et joot". Save journey and all the best, @jonsie

Thanks everyone, feel a little humble

I've obviously been very busy finalising things and clearing the house (still not finished but taking a break!) and with a 6 hour time difference, 7 hours ahead of you when the clocks go back, I may be posting at strange times and in strange use of the Queen's English...those of you who have read my previous unintelligible ramblings will know what I mean

It takes a full 24 hours to get where I'm going so I may be MIA for a while

Thanks again for your kind wishes and to @Cleoriff for starting the thread. For anyone who I may have upset over the last few months, I apologise but it's been a stressful time being apart from my wife for 6 months and the added strain has meant my head has been all over the place. No excuse but I'll leave it there.

Hopefully the land of smiles will be exactly that

....now where's that party?
