Happy Xmas to all SE dudes, and esp to those who've just collected their cars from me - I don't know who was more excited, you or me, will be last ones (for a while, anyway...
)Well here we go, I can't yet reveal all as I have signed some confidentiality papers, and it affects some people currently working.
I left MMC for a variety of reasons, which, for reasons of professionalism, I won't go into on here; the reasons do not include going off selling cars, Lotuses, or the motoring public, which meant I was going to do something similar.
Plan A was to become a sports car specialist, working with one already established (I won't say who, as who knows what till happen in the future; many of you know, the rest may be able to work it out) to help him run the business, expand it, and have a lot more control, fun, and allow complete focus on customer service - which, as anyone sensible knows, allows the rest of it to follow logically...
And it was all decided - business plan and numbers agreed months ago, web address purchased, timescale etc agreed, then notice handed in.
And then I was hijacked - approached by Lotus, who were very keen to keep me within the franchise. I was offered a job, which, after much consideration, I declined; then, they came again, with such an exciting opportunity that any sane person couldn't turn it down - so I accepted, and I move to Norwich on 2nd of January.
Again, I can't yet say what this role is - but you'll see soon enough why moving to East Anglia won't be such a bind for someone who enjoys Scottish hillwalking as much as me...
But - I'm still at MMC till Hogmanay - I'm in Monday, Wed, Thurs and Friday this week coming if anyone else wants to say cheerio; thanks again to all those who've been in so far - to say I'm touched would be an understatement...
Happy Yule!
