I am dozzer19

Neither dozer nor dosser

Neither 19st nor 19 years

I must leave you now.

For your months of service I thank you.

For your fidelity and courage I thank you.

Continue the fight in my name.

I will return when you least expect it.

dozzer19, over and out

Oh. But, but, but, what will it be like without you? It's been a great pleasure reading your posts, and I wish you all the best on your continued journeys. Take care

Nooooo! Don't leave us....

I was happy until I read this post. However, Dozzer19' you were one of the first people in the group that welcomed me, and although I haven't been here long, you've been a great inspiration, along with all of the others in this group. The Dozz-ville Challenge was a defining moment for me in that it proved to me that I could and did complete this program. I'll miss your posts and hope that you will pop in once in a while. Good luck! :)

Nooooo Dozz, that's so very sad. :( :( :( First Miles_Yonder practically disappears and now you! :( Will you change your mind if I throw a tantrum?

Fare well my friend, don't forget us. Just do a Gandalf, and pop up when the going gets tough and we're in greatest need. Have genuinely got a little tear in my eye and a lump in my throat.

Take care sweetie xxx

Certainly different at first, your unique approach has won many hearts. Don't stay away too long.

Well dozzer19, all I can say is you will be missed. I've had many a laugh reading and responding to your posts and I did wonder if you were 19, or 19 stone or born in 1919 or maybe live at number 19 - a mystery still unsolved. All the best for whatever life has in store for you and "So long, farewell, adieu adieu adieu"...x

Noon Dozzer. Can't believe you'd really leave us! I'll miss your posts even though I had little idea what you were on about half the time!

Take care x

Oh Doz where you off to mate? Oh well go if you must. It's been a blast. I thought I'd die laughing when I saw you head first in that lump of coffee and walnut cake. LOL

So, we're a squadron without a leader, a posse without a sheriff, an elephant without a mahout. You get me drift. But go if you must, don't worry about us, left here with no-one to guide us, to steer us through the flotsam of life. We'll manage you just see if we don't. Huh! Who needs you any way? We can get along without you just fine. Shrugs shoulders, flounces off. Oh sod it, wrong door! That's the broom cupboard ..................

Hope you're OK and off to sprinkle your unique brand of Lego fairy-dust somewhere else that needs it. You've had such a wonderful impact on so many people's lives (not just the people directly reading here) - probably a more positive impact than some people achieve in their lifetimes.

You helped get me back out on my bike after a nasty fall months ago.

Adieu mon ami.

Faut-il nous quitter sans espoir

Sans espoir de retour ?

Faut-il nous quitter sans espoir

De nous revoir un jour ?

Ce n'est qu'un au revoir, mes frères,

Ce n'est qu'un au revoir.

Oui, nous nous reverrons, mes frères,

Ce n'est qu'un au revoir.

Hi Poppypug :-) the training is going fantastic! Loving every minute :-) how is you? Josh is doing well and has just knocked 6 seconds off his 3000m Steplechase PB which puts him 29th in the UK for the U20's men! Very proud!

PandaRunnerGraduate in reply to poppypug

Thanks Poppy xx oh no I hope you are feeling ok. It's awful when you feel run down xx have a pamper and try and get some special 'me time' xx running seems to be one of the few things I can focus on at the moment! Feel like burying my head in the sand for a lot of what's happening. Josh is 1min 43 seconds off UKA World Junior Standards so still a long way to go! Xx

Thanks Poppypug. Still having problems need to reduce stress levels. We know just the thing don't we? Have to build back up & now on 20 mins running. I think we all miss Dozz but it must have been hard work keeping up with the frenetic level of posts & replies. It was fun though. Makes me smile just thinking about it :) xx

Thanks Pops, I think he does get to see them because he hasn't deregistered & that's fine. He's probably blushing. Hope he has a good rest. Yes off over bank Holiday & have asked for early finishes this week & next - need to get rid of some excess hours & I'm managing to get some running in. As you say nowt like running. I'm not intending to start back on the rediculous hours I was doing. Have a good weekend. xx
