Gadabout Jack Makes an Apology

Gadabout has received many emails from friends who did not receive an invitation to my retirement ceremony held yesterday, 27 April. It was not my intention to purposefully not invite anyone! I relied upon some emails passed to few people and hoped that the message would make it's rounds electronically. I guess this method did not work effectively. I am sorry for this, especially in light of the numerous invites that I have received over the years from others who personally took the time to invite me to their celebrations.

For those of you that did attend, I am eternally grateful for your fellowship. I think we all had a wonderful time, and I can now confidently face the realities and challenges of civilianship.
