All the best team! I’ll dip back in in 30 years or so when I can keep up with you lot. Look forward to see you all mid 2050s!

Good health and happy driving till then,

Spencer, I thought long and hard about whether or not to reply. I try to be completely honest in everything I say now. I have the impression that your reaction to leave the forum is a bit over the top. Yes, there has been some criticism of some of your comments and perhaps also of your manner in certain contexts. But does that have to cause such a reaction from you? I've often had to deal with offence in my life, or perhaps just the subjective feeling of being offended. Is it worth leaving the forum? Shouldn't it be seen as positive and give rise to a little bit of self-reflection? From my point of view, I would appreciate it if you showed a little less of the zealot and more that you are a bon vivant, which in my view you really are. Because I have enjoyed many of your really eloquent contributions. Your texts often describe driving a Morgan very vividly. Your photos are an invaluable asset to the forum, they are top class and very aesthetic. Your video, as Richard reminded, was with a wonderful message, and it shows the connoisseur in you.
It would be a great pity if we could not continue to take part in your journey in Morganland. I imagine wonderful photos with your Supersports. Perhaps another inspiring video too. Please think it over again. You won't lose a jag if you revise your decision to leave. This forum is a benefit for all Morgan lovers and for each and every one of us. You are one of them.

BTW I won't be able to be there in 30 years, that would be sad.
