    I will be raiding my own cupboard

    My client was too busy shouting at the end client to actually notice that I left the office yesterday for the last time

    Out of office reply set on email.

    Tell the software management licensing person what they can reclaim.

    Link to the karaoke version of "Time to say goodbye" by Sarah Brightman and Andrea Bocelli, to sing on your way out:

    YouTube - Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman - Time To Say Goodbye Karaoke

    (oh, just me then?)

    I don't know why I'm telling you this though, since you'll be at the pub by now and won't be coming back.

    Everybody expects it on the last day.
