Had a meeting with HR today and I’ve accepted their offer it’s to good to refuse a month to clear my desk and I officially retired

You will not be bored KEEF unless you want to be.

You're supposed to spit every time you say HR (spit).

Day 2. I deep-cleaned the kitchen and en-suite, pootled to Sainsbury’s to pick up a few bits and bobs, ordered a new rack for the Pronto (see profile photo), had a mid-afternoon nap, messed about on the internet for a bit and prepped a bike for tomorrow’s planned long(ish) ride.

Life could be worse

P.S. @KEEF very early days for me and I’ve had a year to prepare, but the feeling of freedom at not being at someone else’s beck and call is incredibly liberating.

Did you get a KitKat though?

No.

Go for it! I was 68 when I retired, coming up to my first year of retirement and it's the best thing I've ever done. It seems strange at first but after a day you'll soon get used to it.

 

[classic33]

No.

That's almost illegal.

 

[Drago]

Go for it. I had to work until I was almost 48 until I retired. Hardly have any time left to enjoy myself.

I joined this message board today amongst other things.

Welcome to the mad house

 

[Drago]

If youre mad, like bikes, beer, chips, hunting obscure ordnance survey marks, and sipping a mouthful of George Clooneys sweet liquid them you'll fit in just fine

 

[screenman]

Phew! What a full on day, I am going to have a sit down.
