Retirement is not all it is cracked up to be, the first couple of months are fine but after that when all the gardening and decorating is finished it is a little boring.
Well jean Phil, I am sorry you feel that way. Life's bloody short and you don't get a second ride.
There are hoodle of nice things to do..................apart from gardening / decorating. Indeed, I'd be bored stiff too.
Dunno, why don't you buy yourself a 4 wheel drive and drive around Australia for a year. I assure you your outlook on retirement would change immediatly. In short get out of the house.
When I think about retirement I really get panicky I won't have the time to do all I want to do and I assure you I am not joking, I really mean it.
When I'm on my death bed I certainly won't be thinking " God, I wish I had done one more NRT ".

What is the problem with this for AF pilots, Do they really fear the option will become something complusory? I would say that is very unlikely
Sorry to difer but it is very much likely. We've learned at out peril what the governement word is worth. No more than a huge pile of dung.
