    Not having to work is so wonderful and (generally) stress free.

    I agree - somebody at work decided to take early retirement a couple of years ago when they were off work (sick / stress). From what I've heard they are now pretty chilled out - found another job with a major employer and enjoying it. I've been trying to find another job before I put my ticket in ... no luck so far however ... maybe I should go down the agency route mentioned earlier in the thread ...

    Anyway, off to work in the gulag I go ... :o
