The Retirement Thread

[Mike Ayling]

Due to start here around midnight and not to let up until tomorrow afternoon. I might drop the car off at the garage later this evening. They have a box for the keys.

I am now £596 lighter for Molly. She seems quite bright and just ate some soft food.

Companion animals can be expensive.

Morning all, I am off to Skegness today to play with some dents, chips for lunch. Have fun with your day and do not waste it.

. Have fun with your day and do not waste it.

Sitting watching paint dry is better than working Thankfully, I am not the type of person who feels the need to fill my days with activity.

There won’t be much outdoors activity this morning as it’s heavy rain.

Coooooeee. 15 deg and overcast. We are expecting showers as well today.

Yet another pottering day for me.

Stay safe peeps

I have not felt that I have gone to work since we sold up when I was 33, I get a real Buzz out of what I do and the people I meet. If I had a job like you had it would have been different.

Yep, must admit if I had my life over there would be changes. I would have concentrated on biology and chemistry at school rather than the pretty useless subjects I did take. I would have been happy with some sort of lab work, either human or preferably animal related. I still often wonder what possessed me to either work in an office to start then join the prison service.

Morning all

 

[Drago]

I have risen!

 

[welsh dragon]

I must admit if I had my time over again I would never gave worked for a company. I would have worked for myself. I certainly wouldn't have wanted a managerial position. Its not worth the stress and the toll it takes.

Good morning all. A nice sunny start to the day here.
We are off to Broxbourne on the River Lea later on. A nice walk along the river path and possibly lunch at on of the riverside pubs.

Good morning all, set to be wet and windy all day, such a contrast from yesterday. My new avatar is from yesterday.

Thankfully we now have not only the Tour of Limousin but also the Tour of Denmark to while away the afternoon.

Quite a bit of stress working for yourself at times, I have not had a job for over 48 years, and have been self employed all that time, it has been fun though and still is.
