Retired at 55, towed out of the base and never returned. Seven years down the line without getting another job and still loving life. Big garden, two Labs, ducks, chickens and self sufficient on veg. Walks on the moors and along the coast and a wife of 40 years to love it all with. Saddens me to see how the RAF seems to get more like any other 'job' every day......... I miss the days of the 70s 80s 90s but they are long gone in every way.
Edit..... Do like the 21st of each month :-)
