I agree it is a shame that we have lost Tony, but no need for speculation about his reasons for going.
He left Hillarys (after 27 years) as a planned career change and, I believe, is now with a company in Bradford. There was no falling out with Hillarys and he parted on good terms and of his own volition - in fact I had a telephone conversation with him on the morning he left and he seemed very positive both about his new challenge and about the future direction of Hillarys. I guess, like many of us did when coming into this job, he reached a point in middle age where he realised that it was simply time for a change.
He was certainly one of the best FSM's during my 15 years with Hillarys.

I gather more than one other well known fact is shortly to leggit...and rumour says 3 more on the skids... Then there are 2 mega advisors winding down as well.. Tad worrying lads.. No one dare mention rats and sinking sips, what with all this 3 for £99 we will all be in dole queue together, just like the old days..

He set me off on the right track years ago, and I have a lot to thank him for. good luck to him.
