So. Farewell then....

After a grand total of 41 years, 5 months 23 days of working in the IT industry – and, in fact, for the same company – I’m about to call it quits. I’m just heading into the office for the very last time to hand in my company effects – PC, phone, ID card and so on – and , I’m half expecting that they’ll rip off my badges and buttons, break my sword, and drum me out of the fort (those of you of a certain age will get the reference).

I will then meet up with a sizeable band of work colleagues to mark the passing of this particular milestone by drinking myself to a standstill.

And then the adventure starts….
