How to let go of the purse strings

I can just see you wearing your red dress doing that - or a wartime outfit! Have fun 😊

Many good proposals from Vitor, thanks for the suggestions. I've been looking at business class flights to Australia and discovered they're half the price if you fly from continental Europe eg Amsterdam or Milan as opposed to London. I have to say I find the thought of foreign travel to be less and less appealing as I get older and that it's possibly one of the most over-rated things to do with your money when retired. An Australian holiday could cost us £15k and I keep wondering what I could do in the UK if I was spending that kind of cash? We've taken four holidays this year and while we enjoyed them we found ourselves missing our home routines and community while abroad. It is nice to go away, but increasingly we find it's even nicer to come back!
