That is one of the best posts that I have read in a long time.
Being a mover I find it very hard to believe you can actually read and if a post by Al R is the best thing that you have read in a while then I suggest you get to the library a bit more. If you are unsure where your local one is just ask somebody for directions to the building with the books in it. I don't mean Waterstones or WH Smith either.
Here, we have got someone who has done his bit, and who wants to say farewell and thanks. Its like putting an announcement in The Times, its like a farewell speech at a leaving piss up. Its closure, its a rite of passage, its part of the process and its usually someone's way of affirming some sort of belief in the system despite having been shafted by parts of it and one that he spent a huge chunk of his life subscribed to.
Can anybody smell anything?
