The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Here is one for you.
Do you recall, maybe 2 years ago, I was notified of a pension due to me from a multi national company I don't recall working for?
Anyway I filled the form in and sent it off.
Got a very nice L/S and a decent annual pension.
ANYWAY
I have had a similar form from another major firm......how weird is that.
Anyway I have filled it in and sent it off.
I will see what happens.

There's nothing odd happening with your account is there.

The "Gungha Din', on the Leeds Road, the "Curry Mile"?

Not one I am familiar with tbh.

I've peaked far too early.
Dog has been walked,
Whole house hoovered, minor bike repair only took 15 minutes, and the rain is still falling.
I'll have to go up the road to the shops. I feel the need for cress seeds, I do like an egg and cress sandwich, and my handy size adjustable spanner has gone walkabout. I suspect my son has it though.

Was any of the firms you worked for taken over or merged with these major companies?

No. And both of these are genuine major companies eg Legal and General.

That is my guess.
The one I am actually getting is from a huge company and they are always buying and selling companies.
The letter recently received is from a not so big company but still a major player.

Not long out of bed.

Yet more crap weather out there - very misty and heavy drizzle. It has felt like we have had rain for the whole of July - really fed up with it now.

Monthly money reconciliation needs doing today plus I may even work up the enthusiasm to complete my online tax return. The latter really doesn't take long as I have all the info' to hand but it is such a DULL task.

Will crank some music up in the gym later and get a session in - so at least some exercise today.

Have a good day all.

PS: good to know that we are not the only couple that can't deal with pesky kids around.

Tried four dentists this morning to see if they would take on NHS patients .......
Three Nos and one “we may take a few in November”......I give up

Persevere if you can as I think it will only get worse

We couldn't be bothered to cook today, so we went into town and got fish and chips.

A result for me.
Not been to the dentist for 4?? years......with being ill and nursing Sue.
Just bit the bullet and phoned them. I have an an appointment for NEXT Tuesday at 0930.
I am amazed.

ahh, but..... are you sure that is an appointment for a check-up of your teeth, rather than just to measure the thickness of your wallet?

We had that the other day
