So long and thanks for all the fish

I finally said goodbye to HMRC last night with some 30 friends and colleagues giving me a fabulous send-off in Whitehall. Nice feeling to have gone at the time of my own choosing and still on a high with the work I've recently been doing. Didn't look back as I left the office for the last time though. 35 years is enough for anyone!

Nearly There...

Only a short time to go now before the big move out of Blighty. Thankfully Gordon and Diana have sent me this useful present which will come in very handy in dealing with the natives.
