I've had a good working life, 42 years proper not including the paper rounds and spar while in school.
I've enjoyed it, a lot of performance-related pay, so that was great when you and I needed to move up the housing ladder quickly with a young family and that set me up to ease up as I got older. I moved roughly every seven years or so for new challenges and you get a bit stale and undervalued if you stay in the same place too long. I want to retire in the next year but the Winter weather (constant rain) and lack of stuff to do outside is putting me off.
When I do retire I'm looking forward to plodding around locally at 20mph and 50mph in the middle lane on the motorway
