I fly out of Malaysia tomorrow on my homeward journey (with a layover in Japan). Unfortunately, my long-COVID symptoms returned this week so I am still not confident about returning to the trucking job. I might end up hiking the Appalachian Trail for a few months (I have already done the GA and half the NC sections), hoping that might strengthen me some more.

That's still a few months away. On the immediate horizon is Tokyo, which assuages somewhat the sting of leaving my beloved Melaka. Last evening, we had a boys night out at our favorite Pakistani restaurant and I am fully conscious of how much this city and its people mean to my life.

Today will be busy with packing and goodbyes. I am dressed down in the new Canadian beater. A few photos are included.

Happy end to your work week friends. More from me in the next few days from the Land of the Rising Sun.

Looks great Don. Did you do it yourself?

Thanks Joe. Yes I did. I still need to see the liner back in, but I need a smaller curved needle. I have a had time trying to get into the felt without going through it.

Ah yes.. curved needle might be useful. Wonderful job on replacing the ribbon. Looks perfectly vintage in its styling. Came off like the the ribbon you might see on a Playboy. The knot is excellent in my opinion.
