Ive gone and done it
Well, I await my invite to become a permanent member of the Retirement Lounge. I handed in my notice yesterday and will finish at the start of the summer holidays in mid July. As a lot of you know I lost my school to a huge fire last year and we have moved onto a temp site behind our pile of rubble. It is not the same any more, so off I go! My Mrs has handed in her notice as a teacher and we are currently doing little jobs on the house before putting it up for sale and moving the the East Coast near Beverley. Cant wait now.

Re: Ive gone and done it
Good on you! I’m 4 years off retirement but we’re hoping to sell/buy another place this summer. If I come out of it without a mortgage I will do the same!

Go for it bro. if it feels right.
My big advice (i've said it before) is stay away from daytime T.V.
It is a big change so expect a lot of strange things.

Good on you and hope you enjoy your retirement. I finish next year and counting the days although living in an on site house I've got the problem of finding somewhere else to live.

Re: Ive gone and done it
Greta news for you Rockstar.
Relax and enjoy the last weeks of work before retirement.
I believe an offering of chocolate hobnobs goes down well with the retirement lounge committee.

Re: Ive gone and done it
We are looking at Thorngumbald or that sort of area, Preston maybe or Burstwick. Staying in Burton Pidsea in a couple of weeks and getting more of a feel for the area although we do know it quite well already.Dalscone89 wrote: ↑8th May 2024 at 11:05am I used to live in Hull, which part of the east coast are you headed too? really underrated part of the country!

Re: Ive gone and done it
Enjoy hearing peoples retirement plans. All the best to you an your wife. Two years to go for me, at the end of the month. (I'm marking off each month as it passes - very satisfying.)
