Jon Fitness

All the best mate.

Cheers. I'd raise a glass in thanks when I get home but I'm still on the meds. There's a bottle of Old Pultney malt in the cupboard which I'll get tucked into in a couple of days.

That's the ticket. Napoleon's best for me at the moment.

Good luck Jon - have a hppay retirement

Come and have a play with my Ely signalboxes once you've settled in to your new routine.

Thanks Beast, and yes LNER(GE), one day I'd very much like to visit for a play!

Being slightly mad only proves your heading to normality - I myself prefer insanity as it keeps them on their toes ha ha :-)

I thought you might of been soldering up some 2mm lattice signals...

2mm lattice signals? With my eyesight I doubt if I could even find them on my bench if someone pointed them out.. You'd probably find a few traces of brass amongst the puddles of solder if I tried though...

Only done one up to now.

Very sad but the right decision for Chester's quality of life - we had one of ours operated on twice to remove tumours that came back and wished we'd let her go the first time.

Thanks All. He was our last pet (down from 3 cats and a dog) so it was more of a wrench. All gone over the last 4 years..

Thanks again all. Thoughts are with you too BV.

Good Luck Jon, All the very best to you.

Happy retirement Jon and as the Captain says you won't regret it. I certainly haven't. The best times certainly went with BR.

Might get to a few more exhibitions now!

Doc said left lung quite noisy, right one not so bad. Oxy test showed 99% and I'm now on much stronger A/Bs as he's pretty sure its bacterial rather than a virus. Chest X-ray booked on Monday too. Must be feeling a little better as I'm contemplating some modelling tonight...

Thanks for concern, much appreciated!

Good to be reassured. Fitness 1, bacteria 0. Oh yes, don't go using Butanone.........
