hi gang ,just popped in for a view ,eric you can't beat retirement and doing your own thing whatever that may be ,i presume you can survive without the full income so just get out there and do your own thing .
i find most of my time these days is spent either taking pics ,or taxi-ing the kids and grandkids etc around any other spare time is dedicated to spreading as much chaos as possible on this inter-fishing-net thing .
after your crash you should realise that lifes to short to spend your time making money ,just enjoy what you have left .

Having been retired since 2007 I can say I can thoroughly recommend not working. I can somewhat understand why there is a Benefits Culture in UK. If someone will pay you to not work then why not (dignity and sense of accomplishment, spring to mind!), but unfortunately I had to work hatd for 30 years to make enough money to afford to retire.

Eric, the main thing is that you and Jan have enough good health and money to have those relaxing holidays and home projects to fill your time.
