Retirement

Retired at last. Life begins now.

 The leaving party went well. Arrived home in a police car, torn and bloody hands and knees, ruined trousers at 1.45am. Got lost on way home apparently. Police - Are you all right Sir? Me -No, I retired today, partied too well, keep falling over. police -Would you like a lift home Sir? Do you know where you live? Me Thanks very much ect.

Retirement draws near

Well, we both gave notice to retire to our respective employers. In four weeks time we shall be free to follow a dream. There is a long list of work to be done on the boat and at home too. We shall need to order a fleet of skips to get rid of the accumulated junk( kept in case).
       Anyone need a 7ft by 4ft slate bed pool table? There is just not room on a narrowboat, or should we get a widebeam? Then there are three motorbikes, citroen 2CV, canoe, dinghy etc.Offers considered.
