Just see that you are ex RM DV. When did you retire? I am due to be Ex on 28th Feb.

I retired on December 28th after 25 years Lincox and I seem to be coping well as a house husband Though it's true to say I'd rather be working but I'm 69 and you can't go on forever, though I'd have given it a go The good lady wife and my son kept on at me to retire but in truth I don't feel "old". You'll find it very liberating pleasing yourself what you do all day, well after the list from the wife's been completed that is, usually about 20 minutes before she gets home from work Hope you have a good retirement L.

Did December 28th live up to your expectations ?
A fiver ?
Breakfast ?
And nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more ?

No, No, No, and No. TBH LL very few people knew I was leaving on that day, which was actually the 19th but my official last working day was the 28th. So no maudlin farewells from people who was glad to see the back of me, no collection, no gathering round the DB fittings to hear what a sterling employee blah, blah.
One or two people who knew bought me small gifts and quite a number of cards and I just left on the end of shift.

To be honest it's probably best just fading away like that and no secret to keep from the good lady wife.
