Many thanks. I'll quite possibly get an initial free assessment, then if that looks good, go forward with my retirement plans. Working continental shift pattern 12 hour shifts, 3 on, 3 off at my age, is starting to get a bit loathing. Going to gym, dog walks and a few beers would be fine, but wouldn't be adverse to picking up something part time, keep me busy a few days.
Thanks for advice....0 -
