Discuss think it's time to call it a day in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Do it Tel, you have earnt it. Make the most of the valuable time you have here. You know when its time to call it a day, seems like that time is now.
but i'm only 71. was planning to retire at 80. just got to kick start lungs in the morning with a smoke, whack the old knees with a hammer, good for a bit yet.
 
The thing is Tel, after a really knackering job like that you really do feel totally fed up, and with this weather loft spaces are evil places to be in ! I expect you'll bounce back again as you're a proper old school tradesman and could miss it. You should also have time to relax and enjoy life but you could maybe take on the odd nice little job, good for beer money. :) Most importantly please stay on here, you're very entertaining !
 
Its very ok to get help with a tough job - and remember
