Today I reach what should have been my retirement day...........65!! (where the hell did all those years go?) But not only can I not retire (the government moved my retirement age back a year) I'm in self-isolation for 12 weeks, no football or any sport to watch, no pub to visit and nowhere to go!!! 

However I do have CL to follow to keep me sane and in touch with life outside 'the virus', mind you that is mainly about the Nimer/Southall shenanigans!!

As Del boy used to say "Next year Rodney we'll be millionaires"........well this time next year I wont be a millionaire but I'm going to enjoy my 66th and forget all the current crap.

I look forward everyday to logging onto CL - so thanks to everyone who contributes........one day in the future I'll be back to do the match threads because whatever happens in the short-term I'm sure our beloved club will survive...............COYR's!!!

    Thanks for the birthday wishes; I put this post out before I knew about Seb Lewis, that makes my flippant comments about next year seem so unimportant.

    Fingers crossed we've plenty of years left yet.
    Happy birthday mate.

    Thank the Government you're not retiring today. If you were & had decided to take the traditional annuity you would not be best pleased to find your pension pot was around 20% lower than it was last month & thus receive a much lower income for the rest of your life.
