It's been a blast, but now its D-day and time to say farewell, not goodbye.

Thank you to every single person I have met on this journey. For the hospitality and love that I have been shown visiting our wonderful Nationwide suppliers. The friendships I take with me, the memories, the good times spent at trade shows with colleagues and seeing all our wonderful suppliers on our stand.
you should be SO proud of this journey too as without you my job would have been impossible. From our very first supplier in 2016 to what will be my personal last in June 2022, I thank you, from the very bottom of my heart ๐Ÿงก
I have loved each and every interaction and time spent with every single one of you.

Onward and upward now to less miles and more smiles ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ˜˜

Love Alison ๐Ÿ’–
Over & out ๐Ÿ

As most of our 1894 Sign Co suppliers will now be aware, on 10th June, I, (Alison) will be moving on to pastures part time & new.

By the time I leave, I hope to have said (or in the process of saying) personal goodbyes to the wonderful people I have met on this journey.

Not only have I made great working connections, but also, friends for life ๐Ÿงก.

Now, I still have 8 working days (no I'm not counting!) after today, but I didn't want to leave without an opportunity to thank each and every one of you for your beautiful welcomes, hugs (when allowed!) & hospitality when I have visited you in your amazing business locations.

Also to thank you for the support of the brand from day one to present day. It's success is due to the creativity to personalise and love of our product ๐Ÿ‘. We couldn't have done it without you ๐Ÿ™.

So for now, in the words of my favourite film..
Adieu to you & you & you ๐Ÿ’–

There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall
And the bells in the steeple too
And up in the nursery an absurd little bird
Is popping out to say "cuckoo"
Cuckoo, cuckoo
Regretfully they tell us Cuckoo, cuckoo
But firmly they compel us Cuckoo, cuckoo
To say goodbye...
Cuckoo! . . to you
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu
Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu
So long, farewell, au revoir, auf wiedersehen
I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye
I leave and heave a sigh and say goodbye -- Goodbye!
I'm glad to go, I cannot tell a lie
I flit, I float, I fleetly flee, I fly
The sun has gone to bed and so must I
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye!

Love to you all, Alison ๐Ÿ˜˜
