I'm Leaving!

[SwedishChef]

Dear All,

 

In true one flew over the cuckoo's next style, I'm leaving.

 

Sadly as I'm moving to a new industry it means leaving education and no more Bett shows and most probably an EduGeek presence (it's not that I was an active user anyways!!)

 

I'd just like to say it was great meeting lots of you, and a special mention to these people who have helped me in my last 14 years in schools.

For those who are interested I'll be starting my new post as Head of Technology Group at the Plymouth Marine Laboratory World-leading scientific research - Plymouth Marine Laboratory on the 18th!

Best of luck for your new job, sounds interesting.

[TTG_Alice]

Congrats on the new job!

[elsiegee40]

Congratulations! Do try to stop by occasionally to say hello

[6Foot2]

Good luck in your new role.

 

[failnator]

Sounds like it will be an interesting Job at least Congrats

[Dos_Box]

Awww

 

Congrats on the new job, and please don't be a stranger.

[Bedders]

That looks like an interesting place to work for! Hope you have fun, and good luck! (Also as someone who left education and is still active, I hope to see you around)

[PotNoodleTech]

Wow that looks like a seriously interesting job upgrade!!! Congrats!!!

[witch]

That looks fascinating - but try and find the odd minute to pop in. We would love to hear more about the job and how it all works

[HarryMonkey]

Congratulations and good luck

[ShellfishClive]

Good luck friend! It sounds like a different role completely, I'm sure you'll do well!

[Garacesh]

Okay, your new job sounds super interesting and I'm a little bit envious. I went to College with a guy who ended up at Uni studying Marine Biology and some of the things he told me were absolutely fascinating.

 

.. He also refuses to drink bottled water now, though I can't remember why.

 

All the best!

[Oaktech]

You don't actually have to leave... You can just treat us a edu-tech themed social experience... Jus' Sayin'

 

 

Best of luck with it all though...

[ZeroHour]

Grats on the job!

I do hope you can still meet up for a chat whenever we are around as it will be a miss catching up at BETT etc. As always you can keep on checking in here as network issues dont just target education

[tom_newton]

Slightly emotional.

Been an absolute pleasure working with you over the years, and I wish you every success with your fish-bothering new career. I'm sure you'll find your plaice.

 

See you at some more beer festivals I hope

[ICTDirect_Dave]

Ah mate! It'll be a shame to see you go!

 

I hope the more interesting job was your sole reason for moving.

As always if there's anything at all you need, just let minnow.

Okay okay - enough with the fish puns already! @tom_newton you bad influence you!

[vikpaw]

@SwedishChef - buddy, it's been an honour and a privilege.

Best wishes for the future.

 

Those are some big boots to fill - is it advertised? Have they got a replacement?

 

I don't believe you will be able to leave us so easily. It's addictive. I know you'll be lurking

[SwedishChef]

Thanks to all your lovely messages. So I think I'll still have to lurk in the deep and keep you all posted!!

[Net-Ctrl]

Huge congratulation on the new role. Wishing you all the best. Sounds like a fantastic opportunity!!

 

Hopefully, our paths will cross again in the not-so-distant future
