Sad to see John go hygge-hunting. I had good money on him joining the admiralty over at Mutiny.

A wise person once said your career is similar to a role-playing game. You spend fruitless hours collecting small, meaningless, virtual objects (let’s call them ‘seeds’ for brevity’s sake) only to see the difficulty level increase (such as moving to a country where your flaxen locks are table stakes) to the point where it’s not worth playing anymore. But then again, the same person couldn’t name the most effective fighting ship the Australian Navy has ever seen during peacetime.
