Hanging up my Moderator's Hat !!
« on: Thursday 04 January 07 19:57 GMT (UK) »
Hello all

Just a short note to let you know that after 2 years I'm hanging up my Moderator's hat. 

I've got a lot on over the next little while and I doubt I'll have enough time to do a proper Moderators job for London which takes quite a bit of looking after.

Of course although I'm posting this on the London Board I'd just like to thank everyone for making it a good 2 years and especially the many people who have contributed to making the London board informative, helpful and a cheerful place to be.

I'll still be lurking about as an ordinary member so you're not quite getting rid of me!

All the best and happy researching
Jonathan

Thanks for doing such a good job Biker, I expect you must have had quite a large area and so a lot of work on your hands.

You deserve a bit of a break.

Good wishes
Mary

Thanks for your help and advice, all around Rootschat.  We've all benefitted from your knowledge and advice.  Hopefully you'll have some time available to continue to provide that as a normal Rootschatter (if there is such a thing ;))

Will you still be maintaining the list of Rootschat websites?

All the best

You have done a wonderful job looking after the London boards Jonathan and it must have taken up a huge amount of time - they are so busy. Thank you.
Glad to hear that you are not disappearing completely as we definitely need your London knowledge.
Hope that you will have time to start knocking down a few of your own brickwalls this year.
