Parting is such sweet sorrow (part 1)
I leave the Post & Mail tonight after 36 years.
All right settle down at the back and stop the cheering, and you can put that champagne away as well and no, circulation is not expected to rocket from Monday. Look, can we just sit down and stop singing and waving the flags for a minute.
You will be pleased to know that I will continue to write the blog - can you stop that booing at once and put that chair down. I will have you know that it is the most well read and loved part of the Mail's entire website in a bar in the backstreets Tirana. Yes, I know it was accidentally installed as a home page and no one knows how to change it but that does not make it any the less popular.
You will also be pleased to know that - be careful that brick only just missed me - where was I, yes, that my rant will continue as normal in the Mail on Thursday but more of that later.
Meanwhile can I thank you all for your help and support over the years and is there a back exit as those appear to be broken paving slabs they are carrying in and can I smell petrol?
