Well that was a pleasant surprise.

I am now officially a Pensioner.

Brilliant news. Funny thing though, I have noticed at work, the conversation is less beer and women, and more pensions and the future.

I'm now a skipper on the pleasure passenger launches on Windermere

Which means you can probably see my old college on the west side of Windermere. Then again, the trees have probably grown since I was there.

I'm also semi retired gave up being a maintenance engineer amongst other jobs and called it a day. Now work 2 hours a day at a local school as the maintenance man. Luckily I have a good military pension but a while to go before the state pension starts.

Nice job Paul. I have walked many a mile around its shores and paddled almost as many in it in a kajak. Loved it in the Lake district and the Brecon's. We got the lakes here but hills and mountains? not so many.
Nice office.

Wray Castle? That used to be a training college for Merchant Navy radio operators.
