Jim & Ann Humphries ( J.R. Plax )
Jim
& Ann Humphries would like to inform all their many friends that they
have retired from caravanning and sold their caravan.
Jim would also like his friends in Scotland to know how much both Him
and Ann appreciated their custom and support during his time with JR
PLAX.
Jim also said it was a wrench but it had to be done as they are not
getting any younger and they feel they have moved onto pastures new.
Cruising, Coach Holidays, etc
I would like to say Bon -Voyage and good luck to them both from all their
many friends in Scotland, and to say how much they will be missed.
