It's been fun

But unfortunately I've got to hang up my flak jacket. Yesterday was meant to be my final session, but I couldn't make it because of having friends and family around.

I'm starting my new teaching job next week which is taking me to far flung lands, and as my travel laptop is a tiny little netbook I'm going to have to give up my FA sessions for the foreseeable future, as I won't be home again until the end of September - I'm starting a blog about it, so I'll add it to my signature on here. By the time I'm back ARMA 3 will be out unless something's gone horribly wrong, and I'm not sure how well my rig would handle that game, so it might be a while longer until I can jump back in again.

It's been great fun, I've never been made to feel like 'the new guy' or inferior, the workshops definitely improved my skills (I'll never look at pies and the slicing of them the same again), and there were some real 'wow' moments along the lines in the sessions.

Happy new year, guys. Have fun, I'll catch up you with you soon.

Sorry to hear you won't be with us in the trenches for a while, but excited for you - an opportunity to work abroad (I'm guessing?) is always worth taking. Assuming you're still able to reach the forum, please keep us updated. It's been a pleasure fighting and dying (mostly dying) alongside you, and I'm sure there will always be an AK set aside with your name on it. By the time you return we may even have worked out how to staple some kind of optics to it.

Safe travels!

Yup, abroad it is :D off to the Czech Republic to teach English at a school just south of Prague. If anyone would like me to pass any messages on to BI just let me know ;)

Too bad to see you leave..
But make sure you post a link to that blog dude, I will surely check it out :D
Fer, I'm sure our superior engineers can figure out a way to attach binoculars to an AK. Some duct tape might be involved so Kev pick it up from foreign and exotic lands, will you?

Kev, it's been an absolute pleasure playing with you (especially the part where you were pogoing on a crane in the dead of night. Hilarious stuff!). I wish you the best of luck over in the Czech Republic, and hope to play with you again soon. Have a good one man!
