The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

I'm a cold-temperate climate man.

I had somewhere a bit more exotic in mind.

Cornwall?

 

[Drago]

I'd love the Scillies, but I'd have to go on the game to pay for a house there.

I would just prefer to move somewhere where it was warm all year round.

And me.
I suffer from Reynauds Syndrome. My daughter has it worse than me.
When in our 40s I wanted us to move to the west of France as its a better climate. The problem was, Mrs D was always close to her parents and when they had gone it was the grandchildren.
Now, at our age its just not worth it

Cornwall?

Not quite what I had in mind.

 

[dickyknees]

now slowly moving our lives completely to north wales.

I think it’s a good place to retire to. Where about are you retiring too, if I can be so bold to ask?

 

[welsh dragon]

Me too, I hate the winter and the horrible grey skies, living in Lincolnshire does not make that bit an better.

It is very flat there and I assume that makes it very boring

Good day peeps. It's blowing a gale here with the occasional horizontal shower.

The last couple of days I've felt more energised and motivated. Yesterday I was tackling household admin. Today I'm going to get logs in and Hoover. Doesn't sound like much but after five weeks of not being able to cope with even thinking of this stuff it's a step forward.

Morning all, tidying the back bedroom now that the decorating is done, putting up the curtains etc. Will now have to move the bed and chest of drawers from the small bedroom to the back room. This is turning out to be a removal day as well.
