'Artnoon.


Bit of a drastic solution...so is this retirement or.....
Not drastic at all mate - retirement.

However, to stop boredom setting in I'll find something to do. Anything which is not so stressful as this job. Possibly collecting/delivering cars for my sons' company - it's all high-end stuff.

...and there's always B&Q.....

edit: blimey Karlark!
