1169.0. "The official Goodbye topic" by KRAKAR::WARWICK (Can't you just... ?) Wed Aug 04 1993 21:01

    
    I'm leaving Digital (voluntarily !) on 27th August, after nine years in
    Engineering in Reading. I've been offered a job by Madge Networks, a
    much smaller, but expanding UK company that have been most active so
    far in the field of token ring PC networks.
    
    So, that will leave UK_MUSIC without an active moderator, which it
    really ought to have. If anyone would like to take over this not very
    arduous job, please let me know. The conference could still stay on
    WANLAD::.

    Au revior losers, boozers and users. I'm off to become the new lead
    singer of U2. In fact, it's a "Everly Brothers"-like duet thing I'm
    setting up with Bono.
    
    May the forks be with you.

    If it's to be a duet, Tony, then you can't be the new _lead_ singer
    with U2, can you? At best your glory (sic) will have to be shared.

    You're quite right Piers, my lawyers are working the small print at
    this furry moment.

1169.5Me too...BRIEIS::BARKER_EEighteen days and counting ...Mon Sep 04 1995 14:5514
    My turn,
    
    	I finish on Friday 8th September, after 6 1/2 years in Digital.
    Basically, it was change jobs or move house and I was lucky enough to
    find a job in Devon where I live (believe me, there aren't that many 
    around in grockle-land !). So, the windsurfing, surfing, biking and
    sax-playing is high on the list , unfortunately the notes files access 
    will go which I'll miss. 
    
    Thanks for the info, laughs etc. and all the best,

I finish on Friday 8th September also.  It's a few days away so I won't get all 
emotional and stuff, but it's been a laugh coming in here and causing trouble 
over the past year or so.  I believe Rod's still suffering stress-related 
illness as a result of the great Weddoes-escapade/windup, and I hope that a few 
of you might have picked up on the Wildies by now.

Cheers,
Matt

My turn.  I've handed in my resignation, so I'll be out of here - eventually.  
Could be up to three months yet, though.  I've really enjoyed this conference, 
and really appreciate the input of so many people here (I won't try to list 
them, as I'm almost certain to leave somebody out!)  It's been great 
discussing, arguing, and learning about things in general, even though some 
people might say I have some frankly dubious musical tastes (Cocteaus, Black 
Sabbath, Toyah, Motorhead, Ultravox, Hawkwind, etc)

I'll really miss this conference, but someone else has offered more money, so 
I'm off without a second thought!  :)

Chris.

    Good luck Chris, wherever you're going. As far as your dubious taste
    goes, I'd have to agree with you on Toyah but the rest are fine %^)

1169.9CHEFS::OHAGANBA rather sordid endingThu Mar 28 1996 18:076
    I resigned too, a few weeks ago. Will be heading off to Co Donegal
    on Good Friday to join my family and our most recent acquisition, a 
    three week old goat. All the best to those who've sailed in this here
    vessel and good luck Chris.

Best of luck yourself Barry, hope things go well... and don't molest that 
goat!  :)
