Well done Daryl another chapter starts today and it keeps getting better but initially it does feel strange not going to work it took me two years to finally get my head around the retirement lifestyle, I now wonder how I ever found time to go to work. Enjoy your retirement and we hope to see you out there in the big playground

Just remember to give yourself time. It took me awhile to get used to not having to go to work. Really never thought that would happen to me but it did. But Dazren, it's bloody great mate!!!!!!!

You silly boy.
You gave up an organised life for utter confusion LOL.
just think of the decisions you will now be required to make each day.
1. Do I sleep in or get up.
2. Once your up what do you do with the day.
3. When will you eat and what.
4. Do you stay where you are or will you move on.
5. If you decide to move then it when (what time) and where are you going north south left or right at the first turn).
6. Do you have your first drink when the camp is setup or do you wait till 4:00 so you wet the whistle before happy hour.
7. how long will you partake at happy how and what will you take for your contribution.
8. What is your refreshment for the day.
9. What time will you retire for the day and should you have a good night tipple before retiring.
10 . Should you travel north in the winter o=and south in the summer. Will you cross to Tas this year next or another year.
This is just for starters and there are many more my friend, so get your book out and take notes of your task and those for your partner if needed AND GET OUT HERE and help us out.
By the way CONGRATULATIONS and you can now join the merry band.
Regards
Brian
