Extra day in Nth Wales can only be a good thing, Looking forward to it already, And guess what-- A certain somebody will finally call time on work at that time--203 days left I believe before retirement beckons.

Peter, it is terrible being retired.You don`t know what time to get up,what to do with your work clothes,never know when it is a bank holiday,because you don`t get any & never look forward to weekends because there are all these young people clogging everywhere up.Look forward to a nice midweek meetup somewhere nice next year.

Unfortunately NOT my retirement Reg (I have another 6 years + to do). I'll take your word for what a poor deal pensioners get :lol: :lol: . You'll have worked out who is retiring now.
