Maria came over from Dublin to see me before we leave. We spent my last drinking day and night in the Grey Horse - a great local bar. A good few mates turned up for our last drink in there and I for one had a great night. Time for people to go home and time for me to shed a few tears. Tears I thought I could keep back, but as they cascaded down my face I realised I was never going to be able to hold them back any longer. Once they started falling I thought they would never stop! With all my goodbyes done and dusted I set off for home to spend my last night in the house I had been so happy in for the past 4 years.
One final look around to check there is nothing left to pack before I go. One click of the lock and that chapter of my life was finally over. A moment of sadness and a moment of anticipation for what the future holds now.
