I'd bloody well better. Not my fault they couldn't organise a pi55 up in a Pub , is it?;)

Tony.
 
Absolutely it is.:thumbsup:And there are very few left these days as well.

Tony.
 
I have too mate, not that much grabbing time left. There's a local VW Eos needing an oil and filter change this next week too.;)

Tony.
 
How long now until you retire ? Obviously early retirement
 
Years end is my aim mate.:)

Tony.
 
Lucky so &so , retirement age 67 now for my generation it's like they're holding a carrot out
 
It is, and it's so unfair. Mine went up to 66 a while ago and one more reason to get gone while I'm fit enough to enjoy some time for us. I was 62 last month. I may not give in working totally yet, irons in the fire and all that.;)

Tony.
 
Good on you Tony. Get it while you can is my motto!
Whenever I see a picture of your car I sort of miss the one I had. Then I look out at Pistachio and all is well again!
 
Do a few privates as and when it suits you

Having always planned to retire at 62, my company's American owner's relentless cost reduction campaign caught up with me at the age of 59. It didn't seem like it at the time, but looking back it was the best thing that could have happened. I now have the time to do the things that I'd always put off doing. I've done the odd bit of consultancy to keep the old brain working, but I'm happily settling into the role of old codger/grumpy old man...:joyful:
As you say Tony, get gone whilst you have your health and fitness. You won't regret it.
 
Thank you Robert, I appreciate that mate.

Tony.
