Our bank balance has gone down quite a bit lately so we are now watching the wallet very carefully. Thank goodness we managed to buy all the new furniture we needed when we moved in here so that should see us out as should the car.

There purse strings would have to have been tightened before all the issues that we have now, so even more so in the future, as I can't see things getting back to what they were. Prices go up, but never seem to come back down!!

My work has now become really boring and very quiet. A complete contrast from the last few years and more so these last few months. I'm just trying to hang on until it suits me financially to call it a day :-(

I retired from being a security officer but I can't call it working it was boooooring, 12 hour shifts doing very little in that time, before that I was an industrial radiographer, sounds good but also boring but not as much.

I'm losing the plot, LG, as I could have sworn that you wrote that you hadn't worked for six years. I think I need putting down :-D :-D

I had my own electronics business YG. I gave that up when I married OH and helped him in his business and stayed home and bought up the kids. :-D :-D :-D. I retired from my proper work in 1983

Yes I remember that, I was in Australia at Christmas time 2019 and I was close to having to stay there for what turned out to be 2 years, I don't know what it would have entailed if I did.
