Not long to go now.

I am in the final strech before returning to New Zealand.

Nothing Final on the Job front yet, but lots of interesting leads. One that I would really like to get and looks really hopeful but have not heard anything final from them.

Thinking about going home has awakened some memories of foods from New Zealand that I have been missing. For dinner on the first night I think I want Fish and Chips. A regular Kiwi takeaway meal. I am surprised at how much I missed that.

In other news the government of Iceland has enacted the most stupid piece of legislation that it could possibly come up with.

On friday morning they made it illegal for an Icelandic company to store it's money off-shore, unless they have an office in that country. All Icelandic Companies are to keep their foriegn currency in Icelandic banks and need to provide prove of the need to send any currency out of the country.

How is that for small minded thinking? I hear that a number of Icelandic Companies are opening off shore offices.

Well that is the update as it stands now ... I will update you more in the coming weeks.

Yeah, I heard of that from an Alliance mate who lives in Iceland, seems ridiculous.

Also sorry to see you leave CCP, it seems that you were doing really good work there for the QA department.

Order placed - we can arrange for this to happen. The fishnchips, that is....though New Zealand would be a great place for a CCP office, dont you think? I can do a good deal on one room....

So, if you don't mind the question, why are you leaving CCP? Is it the Icelandic situation, or something else?

Economy. When you can not pay the bills because you can not transfer money out of the country then something is wrong.
