Sounds like a plan, Brian - and a good one.
Check out the Gold Detecting website (if you haven't already), very friendly folk with a wealth of knowledge to share, lots of WA content too.

Brian (WA),

Congratulations. It is a hard decision to make. I still haven't made mine and I admire people who have the courage to do so. I am sure you will thoroughly enjoy your retirement.

Regards,
Bob

Good onya!
Have a great retirement......

Nah, Brian, you won't like it!
I've been retired for some years now, and it's hell; you don't get public holidays, no leave loading, no days in lieu, no long service leave. Even weekends don't seem to give you a break!
Turn back while you still can....
;-)

Congrats Brian (WA), I concur with what joc45 says, hubby and I have been retired for over 5years now, as well as all the above you do what you want when you want with no boss (except, in my case, Hubby) to tell you what to do and when to do it.

Enjoy as we have done although be prepared to be run off your feet, one wonders whether it would be a good idea to go back to work just for a rest LOL

Cheers

Hi Brian.
Have a good long retirement. Hope to join the same club soon. And leave some gold for me to. I am not fussy just a big bit will do, and don't forget to let me know where it is.LOL Brian

Well done Brian, I' ll bet you won't regret it. In fact 12 months from now & you will be wondering how you used to find time to go to work!

I bit the bullet & did likewise a bit over 18 Months ago. Yep, a bit of a bummer as said above about no sick or holiday pay, annual leave & public holidays etc. LOL

But one of the upsides is you can do nothing all day if you choose to & if you don't get finished doing nothing, then you have all day the next day to finish doing nothing! I love it.

Good luck & may you have many happy & healthy retirement years.

All the best mate, and leave some for me!

Congrats and after having been retired for 10 months now I agree with the others, don't know how I had time to go to work. Bit of a bugger about the leave situation but the upside is that if you want to go somewhere, do something etc you can just do it, spur of the moment adventures are great.

Brian,
Good stuff.
See you at the gathering.

Good on ya Brian,

Get out there and get amonst it while you still can In another 40 years or so you'll be way to old lol.

Cheers Wilko
