Safe journeys, and good luck on the job hunt. However while you're back in Portugal I'll be looking forward to some shots from your homeland

Sitting in couch taking a breather from all the packing and gazing at the chaos that is my living room, I can't say that the enjoyment is there right now.I always enjoyed setting off to start a new chapter.
All the best with the future.
But I know tomorrow I'll be in a different mindset.

Portugal
You will remember, or maybe not, that I've been "promising" to leave since winter last year.
I've lingered on, scribbling away on the thesis, stretching my resources, my mind and my stamina...
Now the time has finally come. I'm sending the thesis to my supervisor on Monday for a final read and I'll submit from Portugal.
It does come as a relief, although I am conscious that there is still the Viva to come, together with the continuing hunt for a job.
I am very sad to leave Edinburgh, and in this economic situation I don't think I can afford myself the luxury of confining my search to one city or even one country. If I could, then Edinburgh and Scotland would be it
I will look for a job in the UK though, and hopefully I'll find one.
Of course I have no intention of leaving this forum!
You might have noticed a lot of activity in the classifieds lately, as I tried to shift my stuff .
The trimming of the collection was brought upon, more by monetary and logistics reasons than anything else... its allot of stuff to take back to Portugal.
Hopefully, I will use much more the few lenses I am taking with me.
I regret not having met you guys, I hope I'll have the opportunity yet. You have provided much entertainment and information and made a Pentaxophile gear head of limited skills a very happy man.
