We have finally sold our business and we should be finished working in the next couple of months

So cards behind the bar.

In memory of a great friend I'll have a jd and coke.

I think the header of this post puts it into a nice perspective,
Enjoy the rest of your life

Happy to join you with a JD and drink to your future and the memory of an old rogue !

Life of leisure, hmmm I wish. I can now get on with the rest of our house, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom with the redecoration of the kitchen and dining room and the fitting of an oak floor downstairs.
After that I have a 3 bedroom flat to rip apart as well as finding 2 days a week for voluntary work for a pair of hospitals.
Not going to be dull I think LOL.

I am looking forward though to planing a trip to Assen next year for the MotoGP as and when the tickets become available.
Oh and grape picking season in Croatia next September lol, that will be a cheap holiday as we won't be paying for any accommodation.

Congrats Gio

Enjoy the retirement, I was going to say more time on the bike, but reading the list of jobs to do, I think you should buy the business back !!!!!

Somehow I missed this.
Glad things are sorted Peter ..... Oh how I wish I could afford to retire.
Enjoy the life ahead.

I guess that bottle of JD is all finished?
