How many retired members do we have?

Zeb · 2nd February 2009, 19:38

Just wondered..:lol:

Me? I am semi-retired...aged 42

Not by choice but then sometimes retirement isn't I suppose.

Ah. Thread moved to the social forum....so social it is to be.......

I was forced to retire at 65 from Dennis Motors the Bus and Fire engine makers Then got a job part time with a spanish firm which I stayed till I was 75 and then thought that I had done my bit and packed it in

I moved it here because although the topic may be interest to members it is not directly related to the 75 or ZT cars.

Enforced retirement?

I do hope not. What a frightening prospect.

JohnDotCom · 2nd February 2009, 21:11

Retire? No Never.

I had originally planned to retire at 53...but the plan has changed slightly!

Retired yes, but still after 50 years of solid work I still feel guilty about not working!

I asked my wife the other day “are you fed up with me being under your feet all day long” and she gave me one of those little smiles that convey so much, without saying anything!
