The Retirement Thread

So you and Dirk are well oiled!

I want to move, Lincolnshire is not where I want to grow much older. Choosing where to go is not going to be easy.

We fancy going to somewhere near Minions on Bodmin Moor. Houses are cheap, scenery is beautiful, pubs are good, not too far from the sea and the A30.
We could sell up here, buy a nice 2 bed character cottage in a small village and pocket a tidy six figure sum.
The idea is quite appealing........

I ordered a tracker to clip on Molly's collar from Argos. Will collect it next Friday. Until then, she is staying on a lead.

Before we close the Border.

Like it but we like Shropshire as well, I bet in a years time we are still here though.

But you would miss all those lovely mountains

The Wolds are quite nice,the rest of it I would not miss. It is such a depressing place, even more so when the sky is grey.

Are you tied to family at all?
There were times when I/we had the chance to move.......to Cornwall (Hayle), South Africa or Scotland. I didn't feel tied to family but Mrs D did. My Bro who is mid 70s has just moved back to the Wirral.
I am now resigned to stay where I am.

And there really is a lot of sky there.
