Thank you for your kind wishes and to everyone who has stopped by today. St.John is a parish full of wonderful people, making it such a great place to work!
The apprenticeship was hard work, as you can see, but I know plenty more lies ahead! Jim will be a hard act to follow and my deepest thanks to him for giving me an opportunity to carry forward with the business he has built into what it is today. With the loyal customers I have had the pleasure of getting to know over recent years, I am sure it will continue to be resilient in the face of what can reservedly be referred to as ‘challenging times’.
I wish Jim a well deserved retirement but will of course be calling on him to parachute in to cover a few days off and the odd holiday. Needless to say, provided there is no diary clash with Leeds matches!
