it depends on what type of person you are, 3 years ago i contracted Bacterial Meningitis, and was in a coma for 12 days and in hospital for a month, and have suffered some brain Damage, so a sedentary life suits me and my wife, but if you want, Theatres, concerts ETC, then no, i can still go on holidays, not beach ones, i am still only 56 years old but retired now “That’s a joke son, I say, that’s a joke.” “Nice boy, but he’s sharp as a throw pillow.” “He’s so dumb he thinks a Mexican border pays rent” “ “Son… I say, son, some people are so narrow minded they can look through a keyhole with both eyes.”__ Forhorn Leghorn

Originally posted by Badger11 I realised that my retirement would be better living in London and travelling the world. In London I spent my time doing the culture thing which when you are away from it you realise just what a great City London is / was (thank you Mayor Khan). You have the whole of continental Europe to choose from (well, if you have an EU passport now of course) to enjoy living a life of incredible cultural experiences and amazing food. After we moved from the UK and lived in several continental European countries and a couple of island states, we wished we had done it years earlier. The problem with island states for us is that if you want to travel a few times a year, you're effectively trapped by the airport with no other choice and during covid, completely cut off. On the continent you have the choice of flying, driving or taking long distance rail services. Often we just jump in the car or train on a Friday and drive to the neighbouring country for the day or weekend, no need to book flights, Eurotunnel which if course get expensive if you want to go at very short notice plus all of the hassle of security, checkin, delays, crowds etc. Edited by Orange1290 (13 Nov 2021 4.56pm) Pro China, EU & Palestine

That Polish border is the UK border. I respect the fact they recognise it and enforce it, unlike us.
