Dear all,
Just a quick message to inform you all that the sale of my 'baby', PinPoint
Music, was finally pushed through the legal system today (11/28/97) at 1.30
pm.
The new owner is a local business-gent named Andy Atkinson who is keeping
on Drew and seems intent to run the store in very much the same way as it
has been run since 1986 ... so I am happy, Drew is happy, and everybody
seems content! Indeed, it could not have turned out more 'perfect' all
round.
I am now going to be a 'lazy bum' for a while and
indulge myself in the very first Christmas where I have not had to work my
proverbials off right up to the final moments on Christmas Eve!! The last
Christmas I enjoyed this 'free' was in 1975, so I think I deserve the break
don't you?
It will seem incredibly odd not to have to go into PinPoint ... and I shall
miss 'her' and most of her cheery-faced customers like crazy ... but it was
defintely time to move on ... and after months of consideration, I now have the
freedom (and a bit of financial security) to plot a new career path with
more confidence.
If you've been a customer of PinPoint during my tenure, then thank you
muchly for your kind support and custom ... please continue to support the
new owner ... the industry needs stores like PinPoint and they can only
exist thanks to their loyal customer base ... you have been so kind. And
thank you to anyone out there who has mailed me messages of encouragement
and support in my 'quest' to eventually spend all my life with the gorgeous
and rather wonderful Miss L! (MrsG2B!)
Thanx again!
