Really and truly the final post...

I am sitting at [livejournal.com profile] colonel_maxim's table but at my own laptop. I am in the sad remains of the Athenaeum waiting for the movers to come back for the second sweep. It is only now that I appreciate truly how much stuff I/we have accumulated.

The movers arrived at 7.45 prompt. As I type it is 11.10 at night. They have not been slacking. Without them the move would have killed us.

I am about to pull the plug and sign off.

Good night world, I am signing off from the Athenaeum Club really and truly for the final time. The band is on the deck playing 'Abide With Me' and the waters are rising over the bow decking.

Athenaeum out.

But lo, here comes the Carpathia full steam ahead, to carry you off to a new life! Possible name for the new flat? SS Carpathia. Or Elenbri. Or Dunflittin.

I shall miss the AC - I have many happy memories of it. But onwards and upwards!

I have visions of you and Elle standing on the bow windowsill with Celine Dion playing in the background as the Athenaeum Club sails down Totteridge and Whetstone High street.

Very Gilliam-esque................

I'd like to think Gilliam would rustle up a better soundtrack ;)
