You have struck me as one of the Good Guys in the neighborhood.  I hope your next adventures are as wonderful as they have been here.  
Cheers!

he seemed like a good guy from what I read.  Best wishes, Mr. Bond.

LLAP,
Swim

All the best James.

Your efforts are very appreciated, I met great women at your event. You are irreplaceable.

Thank you for all you've done for the LA hobby community! Many kisses to you, friend!

Do you regenerate into a younger, different body?

I HAVE had the pleasure of meeting Bond, and thank him for all of his efforts in putting together the M&Gs. I know they were a real PITA (having organized events myself), so I can appreciate what he didn't share with us.  

Enjoy your non-hobbying life, and we'll miss your contributions, whatever form that they took (including backchannel e-mails).

Hosting some events with you!

I wish you the best wherever life takes you. Enjoy...

I really enjoyed going to your events and I have had the pleasure of making some really great connections with some incredible ladies with an assist from you and your parties.
I just want to say thanks and I hope you enjoy your time away from the hobby.
Cheers to you!

...Just kidding, of course.  My first M&G was also Bond's first as host in that iconic hotel in Downtown L.A.  What Bond did best was screen, screen, screen.  It was a lot of hard, time-consuming, unappreciated work, but the result was that everyone felt safe and secure knowing that the people who were there were supposed to be there.

Best wishes for the future, Bond.

How?  Why?

We never exchanged emails.  I never said anything of the sort regarding retiring at that time.  Just because I hadn't reviewed anyone but Ashley didn't mean that I had not seen anyone else in that timeframe.  There were a few.  I think I only have like 25 reviews.  But, I have seen over 150 ladies.  I just hate writing the damn things.  LOL.  But anyway, thanks for the kind words.  U are a very pretty lady

Bond

All the best. Very much enjoyed your events over the years.

But Bond has always been a class act.  Best meet and greets and great conversation.  You will be missed.  Best of luck on all future endeavors!

Thanks Bond, your events brought me some of the finest ladies I have known. You made the world a better place.

Hello All,

First, for those who have responded (publicly and privately), I am overwhelmed by all of the good wishes.  Really makes me happy that I was able to add something to the LA Hobbiest Community.

A few things.  I have been asked by several people privately if my "retirement" has anything to do with my health.  It doesn't.  I am 62 and I have been saying for years that when I retire from my business, I will retire from the hobby.  And thats what has happened.  Nothing more.

Will I stop seeing ladies?  Quite frankly, I have not been very active in the hobby for the last couple of years with the exception of one lady.  Whom I will continue to see until I can't.  LOL.  I will have lunch with a couple of other ladies that I am close to.  But thats about it.  My retirement basically consists of pulling back from posting on the boards and the activities,  I had wanted to attend one last M and G, but nothing is scheduled that I know about until next year.  So, thats that.

I will maintain my hobby email.  Its the email I use for the M and G's.  U can also message me on TER because I have lifetime membership (from my moderating days).

Lastly, thank u ladies.   You have helped to fulfill all my fantasies (sometimes more than once).  I have been taught alot from other ladies regarding the business.  You have helped to expand my sexual bounds.  Quite frankly, it just feels good to take a pretty lady out to dinner and get looks from the public.  After seeing over 150 ladies over the years, I can honestly say that I have never had a bad time.  Some have been better than others, but never bad.  I guess I have been lucky.  You ladies have been wonderful and I thank you for it.

Well, thats about it.  Again many thanks for the kind words.  I have enjoyed my time here.

Bond

Bond -

Your (final?) post is, unsurprisingly, as honest, generous and kind as you yourself.

Thanks for all you've done for the community.  Your M & Gs will never be duplicated.

Have a fabulous "retirement!"

Your knowledgeable insights on the board will be missed.  And, I appreciated your friendliness and your willingness to help me out at a couple of M&Gs.

Take care.

Have attended almost every M&G you’ve hosted  and miss them like everyone else.
Have met many wonderful ladies at the parties and several cool gents.
Enjoy you’re limited hobbying if you still decide too?

Thank you and I wish you all the best my dear Bond.  

It's been many years of fun!

xoxo

Hey Bond,

I've only met a few times and chatted a few more thru boards and messages, but I'll miss your presence on the boards and the M&Gs.   It's interesting, but I've been thinking about making same move.

stay well,

-DkG

I myself have retired several times.  
But seriously, Bond, I wish you the best. You've been a great friend to may of us long time mongers.
You will be missed.

Many Thanks

I wanted to say that I will miss attending your gatherings and also seeing you around on the board.  Best of luck on your new adventures you'll be missed.

Hey Sexy, I feel special to have been able to spend time with you when I was just starting out yrs ago and also for inviting me to some of the best meet and greets I have ever been too! I even won a $300 Victoria Secret gift card at one meet and great back in 2014. I just wanted to stop by and say Farewell old friend.  

XoXo  

The end of an era

Thanks for the memories.
