So I guess I really have to come out of denial and finally admit that today is my last day at TheSite Towers. It's not easy to accept that my time is up. But I guess it sneaks up on you quicker than you think.
I've been kicking around TheSite community, mostly in the background, since that day Jim V signed me up almost eight years ago. Over those years, I've learnt so much from so many people on here who've bravely shared about their lives and spoken up about what they've experienced. It's never easy to speak up, but those who have have helped make TheSite community what it is and achieve as much as it has.
Reading through the threads day to day, reflecting back over the years this morning, it feels like a privilege to have been able to share this journey with you.
Some might remember that when I first came on here I was El Gringo because I'd just come back from working in Guatemala where everyone called me Gringo. Now, I'm going to go back to Guatemala and gringo-dom with my family.
I wish you all the best for the future. Take care,
Patrick :thumb:

¡Buenas suerte por tu y tus familia! No te olvidamos (my grammar is awful these days!)
Good luck with el future!!
Just wanted to say a quick thank you all for all your kind words, certificates (brilliant!) and thoughts (especially in Spanish and English!). They mean a helluva lot.
In terms of bringing coffee back - always thought could start importing Guatemalan coffee (it's the best) and then may be export proper tea over there (they haven't discovered delights of the good olde British cuppa :-)). It's a win win... may be appearing on Dragons Den soon.
Take care everyone!
All the best - over and out, Patrick :thumb:
