Firstly, thank you all for your good wishes.

The last couple of weeks especially leading up to the finish were heavy going. We had to finish up all the work and persuade all the cusomers to pick everything up, and remove everything from the building. I think we got to about 9 tons of stuff went to the tip.

The first week following the close, I was pretty much just zonked out. Last week I finished the brake pad replacement on the car, and the waterpump drivebelt, so I could go up to Sydney to visit friends & relatives.

So the plan was travel up today, but dang it, I'm holed up in a Motel at Yass, half-way, hoping to get the car's ignition sorted out tomorrow so it doesn't keep stopping on me!

At least the Motel has free wireless internet...
