And then, they sort of said, 'Right, OK, we're going to take it in a new direction'. And we sort of went, 'Oh, crikey. That's a shame."But there you go. I was quite philosophical about it. If you do anything for 13 or 14 years, you've had a pretty good stab at it. And so I was like, 'OK, thanks for the memories'. And looking back on it, I loved every single minute. I haven't got a bad word to say."
