Hey everyone :wave:

I donā€™t often give a heads up on here when Iā€™m taking time off but since Iā€™ll be away for a lil bit I thought I would.

Itā€™s my time to take some of my sabbatical! (Iā€™ve been at Monzo 5 years, 3 months and 22 days)

Iā€™ll be heading off for a month adventuring to Orkney, Belfast and mainland Europe :crossed_fingers:

But Alan, what about the Community?!?!

Donā€™t panic! I wouldnā€™t leave you without support so thankfully @Dan5 , @_Tom and @GraemeMonzo are going to watch over things and help :heart:

Monzonauts from other collectives will still monitor the forum in case you need to alert us about a specific product/feature.

I have complete faith in you all to get along whilst Iā€™m away :eyes:

Have a great time! Itā€™s wonderful that Monzo do this for staff.

You seem to have been omitted from the Reserves list, Revels. And I thought you were the boardsā€™ official gatekeeperā€¦Tsk.

They donā€™t bother with the non monzo staff moderating officially anymore.

Safe Travels @AlanDoe

Have a good time.

Oh, hang on - does this mean thereā€™ll be no forum awards this year? (best youngster, best comeback, best disappearance, best most-flagged, best sabbatical, etc.)?

Have a fantastic sabbatical, @AlanDoe. Itā€™s deserved many times over.

For old times sake, is Alan off to spend his recently cashed in options?

  • Yes, the manā€™s now a millionaire
  • No, he ainā€™t got enough Doe
  • Please go away again.
