Well, my retirement has finally landed and today is my first day in 'Civy Street'. Feels funny hanging the old spurs up but onwards and upwards!
Now where did I put my Horlicks and tartan blanket.....
Cheers!

All the best with your "new life", make the most of it; it goes quicker than you think....

Marked my last day with a drive out in the Polara in the day and a nice bottle of red last night. Im really looking forward to realising there is only one 5 in the day!
Just coughed and followed through....is that a bad sign Pete?
