Arrividerci

It's goodbye to the Italians, the magpies, the 5.30am alarm call and the sales today as I have resigned. It was great fun working here but the commute, although brightened by the company of Mr Pickwick, Sam Weller, Rob Roy etc, was rather an effort and when my old boss offered me a job at his company in Bournemouth, I couldn't really refuse it. So down to the seaside on Monday. I'll report back.

Bournemouth will, I think be easier on the stress levels. Break a leg!

Thank you KL, I may well on that new surfing extravaganza they've built there. Must invest in a wetsuit...

I think you had some wonderful experiences with your Italian colleagues and some great memories. But yes, I would be happy to give up a 5.30am alarm call for some bracing sea air, it will do wonders for your complexion. Congratulations on your new job.

Let's hope you're right about the complexion. Mine is still recovering from Christmas chocolates.

I thought I had left a comment. However; good luck in your new post. I love to be beside the sea. Are you sure about leaving all those Italian males behind?

Hi Marina - yes it's a shame to bid farewell to the Italian stallions.
Thank you, WL. I'll have to depend on you for my Italian boost now.
