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.
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

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
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

I'll remind you about that should you survive.
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

Does your impending retirement mean you'll be posting more here?
gawd, I hope not
gawd, I hope not
Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

Re: Handed my notice in today
Congratulations, Gob! Now you will have time to do all those things you already do on your holidays.
Re: Handed my notice in today
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

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!
