My one remaining ambition.

  Actually I think I may become a full-time photographer... well, when I'm not doing the housework that is!

    Mmm .. Housework.
    
    The word sounds kinda familiar.

      Thanks Adam.
      
      A house-husband's work is never done, but my cameras command my presence.

  Can't say as how I'm not happy about the whole thing... you know the work ethic is over rated.

  I'm fortunate in having a good number of years in an excellent pension plan... that said I may well find myself a part-time job at some stage.

Congratulations, Usky...they say you should take a holiday as soon as you retire officially to make a complete separation between working and retiring...are you going to do that? The Post Office recommends it to their employees...really hoping hubby can soon...that would be just perfect... GBHs...XXX

looks like October 1st is a day for celebrating, this time last year I was on the first day of garden leave and loving my free time.

Hope you keep busy,

Very good.. so are you going to be spending your time dancing like a break-dancing bear? I'm sure there's a market for it!!

Lots of hugs and enjoy retirement.

  It's a thought isn't it? I could rent myself out for kids parties.

        Save the break dancing bear for when you need some exercise!

I missed this - you must be very relieved. If you are like my Mum and Dad, they were busier than ever after retirement! (Are you going to join the WI? )
