Default Colleague's Leaving - What to write in a card?

Morning!

One of my colleagues and a good mate, is leaving work to move to Spain. There is going to be a collection and a card going round on Monday morning but my mind has gone blank as to something hilariously witty to write in there.

There are plenty of funny people on here - any suggestions?

It's an IT related job that he's leaving...

Cheers in advance everyone!

I can't be bothered with all this worky chummyness. FFS, you all probably never met before, and were flung together to make money for a company nobody gives a **** about.

get over it, tell it to **** off and don't come back, and get on with t he day to day drudgery until finishing time rolls on and get on with your real life.

P.S. usually i just write "all the best"

That's why I got you this card,
And not a ******* present!!!

I tend to use one of the childish comments as follows:

Gary Who ?
How do you make a Hormone ? Ask your Mum.

Or I just simply sign my surname, it makes me look too busy to consider giving it any thought.

Spain
Sunshine
Holidays
FREE Holidays

what you could do is get a "happy birthday nan" card

scribble something out like as if has been sent to someone, cross
them out

and your message could say

"about fooking time"
ps i will miss your wife
