Both multiple html blocks and meta-refresh are non-standard and not
guaranteed to work. (To be honest, I'm surprised the two <html>s
works at all!)
I'd go for a JavaScript move-to-page, with text link as backup for
if JS is unavailable, eg.:
<html><head>
<title>Wait! Or Die!</title>
</head><body onload="location.replace('finished.html');">
<pre>
Wait: ######################## (etc.)
</pre>
<p>
OK, you can <a href="finished.html">continue</a> now.
</p>
</body></html>
