You've done a fantastic job for a long time. You'll be sorely missed and those will be huge shoes to fill. Good luck in your next phase of life, stay healthy and enjoy. We never know how long we have here.

Thanks for everything GuyB! I knew this day would come, but really who wanted it to. I have been around Vital for years, even before I made my account, and just thinking how sick of a job it would be to be a part of the crew in some way. I have so much respect for you and your work, blessings to you and whatever is next for you in the future, I’ll always be one of your biggest fans. Take care, maybe we can get in touch someday down the road Cool

Hahaha!

A couple of new/ current interests include sim racing and 3D printing.

Steve, my oldman is 85 and he spends his time in the garden and washing n waxing his car amongst other odds n bobs...he reckons if he sits he may as well croak.

This got me thinking...two years ago I was suffering to keep up with you walking up that bastard hill behind the Wicks start gate heading to the pro pits.....to make it worse for me Decoster was matching my pace....im 10 years your junior and RD is about 30 yrs older than me. Blush

You got time to slow it down.....a Carmichael style farewell deal. You cant just walk away cold turkey.

You will need to train up your next dude, introduce him to all your special contacts at each event....say goodbye to the old boys.

This new dude can also do the driving, serve coffee....buy lunch...you can sit like a good ol dictator and enjoy the final lap.

Choose select events, half of each series.

Its sure going to be odd not seeing you around and I'm sure each Vitard would want to personally thank you for the years of fantastic entertainment on Vital...some will need the time to plead their case to get outta jail...

With that said, your Sim looks effing sweet and I'm happy for you either way and it is flipping awesome that you have choices and we are all happy for you.

Vital has always reminded me of Asterix and Obelix and their village community.....they hangout, barbeque, drink and then have a good ol fight.....then they reset and start again.

Cheers.

Thanks to all who chimed in here. I appreciate it. Smile

I'm not sure yet what the next chapter is. It's too early for retirement, and I'm not sure I'd enjoy sitting still anyway. I'm open to ideas and opportunities. I'll just have to see where it goes from here. Smile

If you want a gig cleaning pools let me know, work outside and sweat your ass off in the sun like you’re used too, and earn tens of dollars with none of the travel. No nights, no weekends, no work on holidays... Laughing At 62 now I’m a little jealous. I’m sure you’ll find something to keep you busy, but if not let me know Laughing

I sincerely hope you never get that bored haha. good luck and enjoy 😎
