Hen & Gob are not going to watch TV and wait for the sweet escape of death, I’m sure they’ll be very active and live long and prosper.

I wonder how long it will be before your co-workers realize that you've left for good, and aren't just on another vacation...
I'd guess six months, at least...

I think he means he noticed he was at work. Bit of a shock to the system

Funnily enough...
Mine and Hen's hobbies;
Hill walking with the mutts
Photography (Will be buying a new camera (5DIV) before retiring, and investing in /photoshop*)
Bloody awful music making.
Rock climbing (Just bouldering.)
Paragliding
Cooking / baking*
Gardening
Fishing
Cricket matches
Foraging
Visiting / being visited by friends*
Reading
Writing my bloody awful poetry
Live comedy/music/theatre*
Fine dining.*
Art, mainly mosaics
So out of those, the main money eaters will be the one’s I’ve marked with an asterisk*, though most require petrol outlay. Still, hopefully we’ll fill our time, without breaking the bank

Bloody awful music making
Good to note the improvement to 'bloody awful'.

Congratulations!
If I ever manage to retire, I'm planning a walking tour someplace on the island you're moving back to; I'll take you both out for a pint!
