I've been posting in here for years and years and now it's time to call it a day.

I am moving on shortly to another job.  I've been given the opportunity of a lifetime to step right out of what I've been doing for the past goodness knows how long and into a very different role with my own cohort of staff and a remuneration package to match.  

My successor was appointed before Christmas and I've already introduced her to DD so I hope she will find this website as useful and entertaining as I have done.

This website was very different when I first began posting, but there are things about it that have never changed.  I have greatly valued the support and advice I have received over the years.  I am sure that it will continue to provide a valuable service to admins worldwide and to raise the professional game of admins who, quite often,  "under-professionalised".  And let's not forget the humour section on the website.  Keep the jokes going, girls and boys - humour is so important.

I shall be popping in for a short while yet, but this is my swansong.  Have a fabulous 2009.  I hope that everyone is healthy and happy after the holidays and at the start of this new year.  I know it's a difficult one with redundancies, pay cuts etc, but I wish you all the best for the future.

Cyberhugs,

Raindance

Well done and good luck.

Congratulations! I will miss your cheery and level headed responses. You have been a wonderful and very special part of this website and it is distinctly a loss for us.

I wish you the best of luck on your new venture, though I am equally certain you won't need it.

Well, Raindance, I've enjoyed your contributions to this site for many years now.  You will be sorely missed.  Maybe you could introduce your "replacement" some day...

Congratulations
