JJ's Last UK Rally

Jim · Jun 6, 2011

Seen at most rallies and meets over the last two years but Stratford was JJ's last UK rally as he is retiring (sort of) to Portugal. I for one will miss seeing the "stealth van" which was normally first on and last off the rally field with a photo or two to prove it :Smile:

JJ, Whilst you will still maintain your cyber presence on the forums and chat room, and while many of us will pop in and see you in Portugal; rallys won't be quite the same without you. You will be sorely missed on the rally field by me and I'm sure many others.

Best wishes for the trip back down to Portugal and this new chapter in your life:thumb:

Good-luck JJ, We'll miss seeing you at the rallys.
Been toying with the idea of Portugal :Cool:

cheers....nige&sheree

So...Can we forsee a rapid fall in Fray Bentos shares?:Sad:

All the best JJ.

runrig · Jun 6, 2011

Hi JJ,

Sad to hear you wont be with us in person anymore, take plenty of Fray Bentos pies with you and im sure any funsters coming your way will bring you more supplies.

Good luck in whatever you plan to do maybe see you sometime xx

Sheila & Mick :Sad:

This is sad news indeed. I can't believe we won't hear that hearty laugh and those great jokes. Well if JJ won't come to us we'll have to go to JJ's

What 's the postage on Fray bentos?
Seriously, have a wonderful new life in Portugal

Chris · Jun 6, 2011

That's a shame.

I was looking forward to sharing a fag with you JJ

sedge · Jun 6, 2011

I can't get over the unprecedented opportune-ness of my asking for balloon animal-making lessons, my luck just doesn't normally work that way. I think it's quite sad - just met him and now he's going, and, well, sniff, in fact!

lorger · Jun 7, 2011

Sorry to hear we wont get the chance to meet in person JJ i know you said you would come back to see city lift the premier league title but as im only 43 dont think we will meet then

Good luck

JockandRita · Jun 7, 2011

All the very best with your retirement plans JJ.

Take care, :thumb:

Jock & Rita. :Smile:

Simba · Jun 7, 2011

JJ we have met you only a few times and they have all been great, as Jim said rallys will not the same without you. Enjoy your retirement in Portugal.

Ven · Jun 7, 2011

Didn't realise it was your last rally! Even more sorry we left before you had surfaced yesterday now

It's all been said, the rallies won't be quite the same without you (and they'll be quieter of course!).

Have a fabulous time in Portugal, we may see you there some time x

Dalek · Jun 7, 2011

All the very best JJ, only met you at Peterborough but you most certainly kept us all laughing and long may you continue to do so in Portugal. One day on our travels we may get to visit you.

Best Wishes

Dale, Graham & Emily

That should lower the average age at a funster meet.

Enjoy your retirement.:thumb:

Dodgey · Jun 7, 2011

All the best from us to, ran out of time for a proper goodbye at Stratford, hence the horn, but as we said we are determined to invade Portugal sooner than later, you can run but you can't hide

champers · Jun 7, 2011

JJ have a wonderful retirement and enjoy every moment of it as you have earned it ....as others previously said it won't be the same here without you at a meet/rally

Sorry we had to leave before you were about yesterday so didn't have my last hugz but hopefully one day we will be in your area and will call in and help with that strimming etc as promised

Take care n safe travels

John n Kath xx

slobadoberbob · Jun 7, 2011

will miss you JJ

It will not be the same on the sites without you.. no one to wake up on arrival, or to make the day brighter as you have done since we have known you.

Hope you will get back over sometime .. you have to come back to get the pies.. not sold in Portugal are they

Anyway have a good time in your future chapter in Portugal

Bob, Sue and Ezzie:thumb:

dylan · Jun 7, 2011

Sorry I never got to meet you in person but the very best of luck for the future.

Wildman · Jun 7, 2011

Happy semi retirement, don't let Fatima work you too hard

Will be over sometime, keep the tescos bag hanging in the trees so I know when I am close, hee hee

Bailey58 · Jun 7, 2011

Only met you at Peterborough JJ [STRIKE]but despite that [/STRIKE] and wish you all the best for the future, now you'll be even further from Eastlands than I will from Old Trafford!

Get one from here PP, buy JJ a City one too while your at it. :Smile:

Landy lover · Jun 7, 2011

I have worked out JJ's plan - I think - he is going to open a camp site in Portugal and the entry fee is a FB pie - payment for fees is either by tins of peas and more FB pies or labour maintaining the site to a very high standard. He has already instructed Dellwood to bring out a chainsaw - told me to only arrive if I bring my secateurs

I think the ultimate plan is to plant a vineyard so as to save going down the shops for a bottle to go with the FB pies

too late he already has a vineyard

He just needs to learn how to make the wine and funsters no good for that, they are great at getting the wine out of the bottle but not in

Oh ye of little faith Roger - I can make an excellent wine - trouble is I keep on checking to ensure it is perfect - weeellllll once you have opened the bottle to check its good you cannot seal it up again can you
