[higham5]

Fantastic! It is surprising how carrying out a similar role for a different organisation can bring so much more satisfaction.

I will be retiring and looking for a completely different line of work/hobby to keep me occupied in the next 2/3 years - either that or I will continue studying, as I am slowly getting back into the habit and can see my spending the last years of my life happily studying and researching different topics.

Im a trainer in a chemical company , however linked to Omegamanic above i completed a degree last year at the ripe old age of 56 , having left school with only CSE's . Oh and the best part i was awarded a first!

I think I may have mentioned this on T-Z before, but a few years ago on Weekend Woman's Hour on BBC Radio 4, Jenni Murray was doing a piece about street prostitutes in Edinburgh.

Part of the piece concerned an industrial estate where the girls had worked and the police turned something of a blind eye. The site had since been purchased by property developers who were building prestige housing, and the girls were being pressured into moving elsewhere.

Jenni summarised (and I paraphrase, as it was a while ago). "When this was an industrial estate the girls could work with a minimum of harrassment, but they are no longer welcome now it's an up and coming location".

'Always has been, Jenni' were my thoughts.

Regarding my own occupation, I wanted to be a jockey or a meat porter, but after a spell as Professor of Difficult Sums at Staveley Uni near Chesterfield, I spent the last few years until retirement as a landscape gardener on a sewerage farm, (No, Mr V, this is not the euphemism you might think it is).

Hahahahahah "prestige" Hahahaha.

The industrial estate is still full o'business.

I herdle squirrels (internationally)

Do you mean you herd squirrels or you hurdle them? Or does 'herdle' mean to combine the two?

Incidentally the curry was excellent, by far the best I've had in a long time.

Sort of kind of an accountant, business consultant and such like.

Sold the practicing accountant arm of my practice early last year.

Worked part time last year as an FD and spent the rest of the time trading the stock market, reading books, watching films and messing around online.

Now wondering what to do really. I'm 42 and think it's too early to retire, and I can't quite afford it as I spent too much money on shoes and watches.
