… that I swiped after my lunch at the Indian Ocean today. It was my leaving lunch - and that of someone who actually finished today - and it was a good curry.

I’m not really looking forward to tomorrow, I have to admit, for various reasons. One of them is the traditional farewell speech, of course; another is having to clean all my personal crap off the computer and out of my drawers. At least the computer stuff can go on a USB drive; I’ll need a crate for the things from my drawers and desk.

And, yep, I’m sad about saying goodbye to people. I know from past experience that even with the best will in the world, it’s easy to lose contact with ex-colleagues. And I’ll definitely miss the sociable side of the job; I’ve had some good times.

But life moves on…
