A very weird feeling today. I gave the go ahead to start the recruitment of a role which starts the process of phasing mine out. This isn’t something that was sprung on me, it was a case of collusion with my boss.

I want to go bush after a summer of watching Ashes cricket.

It’s important to orchestrate my exit this way so that we could recruit the right type of person so there’d be less disruption to the team when I melt away to Africa.

This is something that I’ve dreamt of and talked about for so long there really is no turning back now.
