If you don't have a pension, it could be time to start one?

Do you have instant access savings to tide you over when you are "resting"?
Do you have a cash isa to which you have subscribed in this tax year? If not, you could open an account although interest rates are poor. http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/saving/article-1583859/Best-savings-rates-General-savings-Internet-branch.html
