Say Hello and wave Goodbye

[digthatchick]

As the title says, I have been on the vine for a couple of years now and I don't think I introduced myself, so Hello everyone. Sorry for that, I was quite new to forums then

As some of you know, in November last year I was made redundant from the print/design industry, I decided to leave the trade all together, take myself back to college (at the ripe old age of 58!) and retrain as a gardener (plenty of practice with my garden)

Well twelve months on the business is going great, with several regular clients, including one large house where I am employed every week for a day and a half.

Although I still grow my own veg, the emphasis has really turned to plants and shrubs. During this winter I will have a 30' polytunnel erected to house my growing collection of plants, and to bring on seeds for next year.

Because of this I will be "leaving" the vine. I have had some really good (and bad) times on here and "met" some great characters, but all things come to an end and I will bow out and wish you all well.

I may dip in from time to time and see how you are doing, but not really post much.

If anyone wants to get in touch you can find my email in the weblink at the bottom of this post.

Have a great season next year.

Chick

I'm so pleased that your business has taken off, but don't be a stranger. Call into the madhouse as often as you can!

Wonderful news about your business, but you do realise we're still here in the evenings don't you?

If you need help, advice, support, or just a jolly good moan, you know were we are.

Wishing you continued success

Well done you, I hope your business goes from strength to strength, I'm relatively new a the side of others who have posted on here, but I Eco what has already been said "Don't close the door on the vine", pop back when ever you feel, its probably one of the only things in life that's FREE!

Good on you for going for it. You can still visit us though, can't you?

[Incy]

I'm not keen on goodbye's I prefer the french aurevoir which litterally means till I see you again.
I'm glad your business is going well and hope it continues to do so, in the meantime please don't close any doors, come and visit when you can.
See you later

I'm doing a similar thing to you, and for similar reasons - I still manage to pop in here and type some drivel most days though! Good luck with it, and don't be a stranger

[vicky]

Good luck with the work...but don't forget us!

Wot they all said. So glad your business has taken off so well, especially in these difficult times. You'll be snowed under once the economy starts to pick up again.
