Tomorrow will be my last day in the office.
I am saying goodbye to friends and acquaintances all over Cambridge - where I've lived for over 30 years - from people I've sung with in a local choir, office colleagues, people I see at the gym, university colleagues, to the girl at the beauty salon!
I've also bought my last copy of the Radio Times, which seems very significant. Friends are coming to a drinks party on Sunday, and at the moment we are wondering whether my cat Albertine - who is going to live with friends down the road - should move before the party or after.
There is also the question of The Bed; this hadn't been included in the original list of things to go into store as it is a little broken but now it seems like a good idea.
But what will the removal men say?
