Monday: Final Farewell

We had a public holiday today which was great as I really needed the extra day to do some sorting (which included buying some extra luggage to take account of the various shipments that we have).

A number of my international colleagues are also leaving shortly so seven of us grouped together to have one joint farewell gathering with all our friends/contacts. This was us just before everyone arrived - I could make you play 'guess tha nationality' but I won't put you through that. So, from left to right, here are my colleagues from Canada, Belgium, US, German-Croatian, Lithuania, Norway and, behind me, Finland. Between us, we are off next to Rabat, Brussels, Jerusalem, Paris, Vilnius and Stockholm. I haven't included where we are off to as that remains a secret..........
