Time to call time and retire from being a mod …

Best wishes Gareth, and thank you for all your efforts with the forum.

Best wishes Gareth, and thank you for all your efforts with the forum.

Seconded. Good luck for the future.

Very sorry to hear this Gareth - though pleased for you, of course.

You have always been the more moderate of the Mods and your steadying influence has, I am sure, helped to maintain a balanced approach to the difficult task of maintaining order.

I hope that you will continue to make your valuable contributions to the "Gentleman's" section as a regular BBS member.

ATB,

Gentlemen, I am genuinely touched by all your kind words. Many thanks. Going off line now, however, as I have a set of chalk animal targets to decimate at my plinking range.

[BigEars]

Thanks for all the work you've put in, I'm sure the sensible folk appreciate it.

Modding on a couple of small forums I know how much work it can be. Thanks for putting up with us rabble for 5 years Gareth

Farewell esteemed moderator, it's your efforts (and those of the other mods) that have helped to keep this forum genteel and civilised for the benefit of all of us.

Thanks and good luck.

[Minuteman]

It has all been said, but another bit of thanks from me too.

I trust you will still lurk over in collectors so we may once in a while benefit from your knowledge and writing talent?

Three hours a day. I'm lucky to find three minutes spare in one sitting.

Thanks for your time and effort mate. Enjoy your new found free time.
