  1. Sorry to hear this Bill, although I appreciate your point about retirement. You will be sorely missed for shining a bright light in dark corners, especially in Local Government.

  2. That’s appreciated Jim. I think that’s what we were always meant to do. It’s the old school motto Tradamus Lampada which is Latin for We Carry The Torch I intend to hang around though until after the election.

  3. Bill,

    Thanks for the Democrat. It really is the free press at its best. Your gift to the people of Dumbarton and beyond. A life of Tradamus Lampada.

  4. Hi Bill glad to hear you are finally calling it a day. I have followed your paper and you have used many of my pictures over the last few years, for which I am grateful. However what will happen to those pictures you have in your archive in the event of a sale? Will mine(and many others) become the property of the buyer to use as they please?
    Enjoy your retirement.
    Cheers
    Tom
