Re: How Easily Did You Adjust To Your Retirement?

Well, l'm afraid, l hate retirement and still wish l was working!
To me retirement addles your brain, in that it slows down to adapt to your new lifestyle!
I would love to go out to work but l'm not sure if l could fit it in!!

I think wallpapering is very challenging and climbing ladders has a certain element of excitement.

I'm sure he'd help you. You couldn't just leave him to get whiffy, Art.

Judd my good man, where have you gone?
