A loving ' farewell' goes to John, Norman, JImmy, Martin, Stewart and all those regular customers we grew to love and enjoy who ' left us' for another dimension, as it is sometimes only when someone leaves that you notice how much you enjoyed their company and maybe you wish you'd said something extra nice, kind and thougtful while they were still with us.

The last time I saw Jimmy was before Lockdown and I remember saying good bye to him and ' Take care Jimmy. See you soon and Drive safely' and I never knew then that this would be the last time I was to see Jimmy. Same with all those listed above.

Appreciate those around you and let them know how much they mean to you as tomorrow is another day and you will always wish you'd said something when you had the chance.

So a very big THANK YOU to all those who have visited and since - moved on with their journey to pastures greener, and I send big hugs and thankyou for the moments in time we shared and for making this journey just that little bit more fun knowing you were a part of it. You will always be remembered.

I always hated my father because he was a motorcycle mechanic, not a doctor or lawyer like my friends’ parents.
