The smug feeling that you get on a sunday night!

I retired last spring and thought id struggle with winter, but time flies just make sure you get out of the house everyday (weather permitting) even for a short walk.

Plus more time for daytime meets.

I retired early and have never regretted it.

There are potential downsides - boredom, less social interaction, lack of routine. But the freedom to do what you want when you want is liberating.

Find something to do - hobbies, volunteering etc which take up a regular part of your days and you'll soon find you're busy again but you'll be the one in control of it.

It is a huge life change but with a bit of planning it is a positive change. Enjoy it.

I have loads of hobbies and interests so it’s been like going on holiday and not returning. Filling each day with learning new things, excercise, catching upon films, books etc. I do hear of many people though who have no life outside work and they really struggle with it, suffering with depression, lethargy etc. . It’s really down to the individual.

I enjoy being retired but now much harder to meet as the wife is around most of the time.

When I was working it was easy to go off radar during the day for some cock fun.

Totally agree. Getting out to meet when the wife wants to keep her eyes on you all the time is the downside to retirement.

Retire TO something! If you don’t have anything, the first six months is a holiday. Then it gets boring. I retired at 50. Started a business for something to do. Wish I’d kept on 2 or 3 days/week.

Then again, every day is Saturday!

Yes, I went to 3 day weeks, to avo6tsx, as the tax free allowance didn't go up.

Then retired just before Christmas.

Depends on your circumstances, for me it was a massive tax free lump sum from my pension, you don't pay NI only tax on your income, 2025 we had 17 weeks of holidays and was only at home continuously for 8 weeks in July and August. I've been retired nearly 10 years and love it 😀

Have a lovely breakfast, no rush ... What shall I do today? Sweet.

It's very important you keep your fitness up and refrain from becoming a daytime television couch potato.

Spending my £100 winter fuel allowance on a quality bottle of rum and a few pub visits. That'll keep me warm.

I retired 5 yrs ago, but wish I had done it sooner, far too busy to work now, I love my life, I walk the dog, for about 4/5 miles first thing in the morning, then go to the gym or swim, then have a sauna and a session in the hot tub, home for a light lunch or meet a friend for lunch, get home about 2,30 if I'm out, tidy the house or garden, do whatever needs to be done, there is so much to do and see, just DONT retire and sit down, move and keep moving, A MOVING BODY IS A SOUND BODY, .do loads of stretching and yoga, alternatively, just keep walking, its free and in the fresh air.

I was told you need 4x as much money coming in when you retire, as when you were working, that's just nonsense, I'm not wealthy, then neither am I a pauper

I retired four years ago. Best move I ever made. No regrets whatsoever. Did the same job for over forty years. Over the years people have said that you'll know when you're ready to go & they were right. Things got difficult at work towards the end, mainly due to covid. Looking back, up to that point, I'd enjoyed my job, worked with some interesting people & enjoyed being part of somthing. I always take the line I miss the job I used to do not the job I left.

Had the very sad news that someone, same age as myself, had died unexpectedly during the summer. Enjoy it while you can guys. We don't know what's around the corner.

Tried it once, didn’t like it, I was probably too young to retire, old age seemed a long way off. So I went back to work. It’s always seemed easier to work now I’m doing it because I want to, not because I have to.

I’m 60 this year so I’ll probably slow down a bit, but I doubt if I’ll ever complete retire while I can still physically work.

I’m retiring from work in 52 days at the end of February after 58 year continuous employment, being ruled by the clock and calendar.

I’m not retiring from life though, plenty to occupy myself, leisure and volunteer venues, at the time and pace I wish to, enjoying hopefully the healthy years ahead, it’s time for a new phase in life.

For me the solitude of retirement was terrible. one day I was in demand and busy the next I was..... spare

The only saving grace was that I was free and able to pursue my predilection for intimate male company

I have since gone on to enjoy the pleasures of 'dressing' and wearing fem lingerie I have now happily converted to bottom which I should have done years ago

I retired before my wife (about eight years ago) and she retired about five years ago. While she was still working I had the opportunity to meet with other men regularly while she was at work. Now she's also retired it's more difficult to get away but I make every effort to.

I enjoy being retired very much and a big plus is having the grandkids nearby, less than a mile away and it means I can see them regularly.

I still manage to meet other men and I have a few regular married men who I enjoy playing with.

I took early retirement last year after over 30 years as a mental health nurse. Never looked back or regretted it. It felt strange at first because I have always had a strong work ethics. However, I have done my bit. I worked all my life, including a paper round before leaving school. I know plan to visit a few more places i have wanted to see, and travel the UK in our recently acquired motor home. I've recently signed up to do voluntary work at our local Blue Cross.

I had no choice but to retire 5yrs ago and become my partners f/t carer, I miss my job as a theatre technician in the NHS, but I keep myself busy with things.

The only downside to being at home is that your life ain't your own anymore due to district nurses in everyday and bloody hopeless personal carers.

Other than that life is a hoot.

Been retired for a few years after working very hard in job I loved. (Self-employed. ) First few weeks felt good, then missed my work but mainly memories over the years. Unfortunately, retirement still besets getting older so having to deal with medical issues. Fact of life.

But, you can do anything you want, when you want . Hobbies abound. Getting up when you feel like it. Etc . So, it's a good idea to plan what you'd like to do and enjoy it but keep healthy . P. S. I couldn't physically go back to the work I loved.
