This was never going to be an easy post to write, but I decided to shun the homepage puff and write it from the heart where I began my PH career, right here in the forums.

If you follow me on twitter then you may already know what I am about to say, if not then it’s with mixed emotions that I announce I’ve handed in my notice at PHHQ and will leave for the last time on the 18th July, if not a little sooner.

Times have changed a lot since I started here with Petrol Ted, soon to be joined by Racing Pete and Mr Will, but every day has been a pleasure. I’ve met many of you, not met many more, made some great friends, driven some great cars, been up far too early for Sunday Services and have been through many a PH drama! Still, I wouldn’t change a thing and that’s down to you...no really, anyone who reads this has played a part in making my working life a pleasure.

I’ve done a good stint here, now I must move on to pastures new and allow someone else to write the next chapter. I can’t wait to be a PHer rather than a staffer and I look forward to attending Sunday Services a little later than I have to arrive now. I’ll still be around for a few weeks yet, so these aren’t my last words, but I wanted to let you know as soon as possible

I’ll remain in the car website game, but it would be unfair of me to use PH as a platform to promote my new venture, that said I’m sure I’ll bore you silly with it on Twitter in due course.

Thanks again, have a virtual beer on me (actually, maybe I need a leaving do?)

Good luck in your new venture Paul, you will be missed!
Let's just hope that Haymarket can find someone with the same dedication and enthusiasm to try and replace you!

PS, I hope that you will keep us up to date on Facebook too, we don't all use twitter!

Thanks all, it would be very easy to stay but sometimes I forget I have a career to build and I'm not just here for the great times hehe

What can I say, eh? Too many words.

Me and the TVR will continue to rumble around, PH will always be my first true love.
