Wow, it really feels as though one of the family are emigrating.

I wouldn"t be selfish and ask you to stay, just best wishes and luck for the future to both You and Jen.

Should you ever feel like returning, You will always be welcomed with open arms.

You truly are a Gentleman Leigh, I for one have learned a great deal from You. So a big thank you and a warm send off.

Enjoy mate, you deserve good things in this life.

I could mock some questionable life choices (not being from Manchester and supporting Manchester Utd, being Welsh), but in reality your cheerful demeanour mixed with ill-disguised disgust at tight-passive play will be sorely missed. You are one of the very best parts of APAT and I hope you return in some capacity in the future.

If not, there is an actual life to be led (we should all be so lucky ;)), and I wish you the very best with everything.

Oh Leigh

Being totally selfish I am gutted at your decision because you"re one of the main reasons that makes coming to APAT so enjoyable. I will miss our little chats tremendously.

On the positive side though I"m so pleased that you"re going to be looking out for you and yours rather than us lot for the foreseeable future - the people who get to see more of you becasue of this decision are very lucky indeed. I wish you and Jen all the best for the future.

Thanks for letting me say bye at DTD "normally" "cos I would have cried if I"d known!  :"(

All the best and please do keep in touch.  :-*

Not gonna lie, i almost just cried :(

having you as part of the three musketeers of APAT has been an absolute delight and a privilege to experience the first class poker events that you have been involved in.
People on here have said things like "you will be missed" and "thanks for everything you have done" but for me that rings so true its devastating to learn you are leaving.
You have sorted so many things out for me in my time in APAT, most recently bagging me a late seat in the Heads Up event at this years WCOAP, which of course i binked :)

i now honour that immensely proud moment in my poker playing time to you Leigh as a huge thankyou for your effort and work in APAT.

Good luck in everything u do in life from here on in, hopefully we will see you prosper in that and maybe, jus bloody maybe at a poker table somewhere across the land :P

With great regret but even bigger best wishes, may your dreams away from APAT come true :) x

Just arrived in Plymouth and picked up on some thread on Facebook that said you were leaving.
Quite frankly, I thought this was a joke but on reading here, I realise it isn"t.
I am very saddened to hear that you are leaving APAT. You have been a true Gent in the years that I have known you and despite us often disagreeing over some matters, you always had a way with words that made me think "Maybe this guy has a point"....not an easy thing to do with an arsey get like me !  

You will be sorely missed and you only have to read how many posts are listed on here to see this.

I wish you every success in all you do in the future and I said, you are a TRUE GENT !

I too saw a facebook post and wondered what it was all about now I know why.  Leigh, you have been such a joy at events, your invaluable help, your support and your dedication to APAT is priceless, people are drawn to your caring and generous nature and you will be sorely missed by all. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

I wish you every success in your new endeavors and Good luck with whatever you do, and hope to see you again soon.

WOW.

Tighty mentioned something on a thread this week but I thought it was a holiday or something.

It"s all been said in previous posts, so I will echo their thoughts. I"m immensely impressed with everything you and even more so by the fact that you do it with a smile on your face!

You will be missed and I"m gutted you"re leaving APAT but I know I couldn"t do what you"ve done over the last few years and that W:L balance is the most important thing.

Good Luck
