I was feeling quite motivated on my return to work after a weeks holidays. I was even thinking maybe extending my leave date was an option Today and this afternoon in particular itβs back to the same old same old and I just need to get out as soon as I can. |

The general consensus within this group is that retirement is great and retiring early should be encouraged. Just seen a fantastic example of someone who bucks that trend & for whom retirement definitely wasn't going to be right. Congratulations Sir Mark Cavendish πππ. We all retired so you didn't have to! |
