I am discovering the fact that being...Mosstrooper,<br /><br />I am discovering the fact that being retired does not mean being idle!<br /><br />Already today I have sorted out my personal accounts, been to the bank to sort out my mortgage, and written a very long and detailed letter to the local council yet again complaining about the balcony that my next door neighbour built on his house four years ago in contravention of the planning permission he was given. They have been 'dealing with the planning violation' for over three years ... but have so far done nothing about it. Today's letter was a final ultimatum; either do something or I take the matter up with my local councillor.<br /><br />(I have not done this before because I happen to know the local councillor very well – I taught her son and daughter as well as worked with her on several projects – and I did not want to look as if I was 'pulling strings' to get something done.)<br /><br />Onwards and upwards!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-65143335888672092072011-09-05T09:14:51.228+01:002011-09-05T09:14:51.228+01:00My brother-in-law who retired about 3 years ago to...My brother-in-law who retired about 3 years ago told me recently that he was so busy now that he could not understand how he had time to go to work in the past .

In addition, my wife is not a 'morning person' so I am still going to have to get up to make her breakfast ... so no 'lie ins' for me!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />Bob<br /><br />PS. I have found a nice cafe nearby that does a very good cooked breakfast, and I hope to treat myself once in a while.
