Finally made it!
Had trouble coming back in for some reason. Computers. wonderful as they are, are not infallible!Me? Male. Divorced many years ago. Multi-grandfather (all of my kids have kids!) Reached 69 this year and have stopped counting.
Dog lover (current associate is an 83 lb German Shepherd/ Rottweiller cross, more black and tan than grey) who looks threatening but is as soft as warm ice-cream.
I have discovered that there is a problem with retiring; you never get a day off! I run a taxi service for my kids and their kids, to school, work, etc. Like a lot of us older ones, I suspect. The pension doesn't go as far as I would like, but the alternative is worse. Love to all.

Re: Finally made it!
Thanks, Mags.There are times when I get bored; usually at night when I can't sleep! You are possibly familiar with that situation? With all the repeats on TV in the early hours of the morning, we should be allowed to use last year's TV licence again! It is nice to have someone to talk to sometimes. My dog is asleep on my bed at the moment, so I can't settle down without a wrestling match with him to get mack in myself!

Thanks, Cassie.In the wee small hours of the night when I can't sleep, sometimes it is nice to have someone to talk to. Just now, I'm watching a repeat of CSI Miami. OK, but I have seen it before. When the yawns start, I guess it is time to close the hatches and turn the lights off. Later! Cheers, Roger.

Re: Finally made it!
Hello Roger
welcome back to the forum
look forward to seeing pics of your dog. You sound as though you have a very fulfilling life with all the grandchildren you have! I hate retirement - I miss the buzz of travelling back and forward to Glasgow and having a natter to folk! Still I have more time to be with my two parrots and my lovely Loki, my 4 year old pup!!
Take care.
