We've been debating it, discussing it, wavering about it, and then when the decision was made and the forms submitted, planning for it for what feels like forever ..., yes, retirement has finally arrived for the both of us. Retired! Blimey, that makes me feel so old, in my head I'm just a mature looking 21 year old who happens to have grey hair and a beer belly. I went straight from school to work, no university and no gap year, so I sometimes think I've missed out on the whole misspent youth and travel thing, and I'm hoping that early retirement will allow me to play catch up while I've still got some stamina to live life on the edge ......... well I say on the edge, buying a motorhome and joining the Caravan and Motorhome Club its probably more middle England then sex drugs and rock and roll. I do like my comforts but there is something quite appealing about the freedom of being on the open road, just going with the flow and following the sun until we can no longer afford the diesel!
