Ninety and counting

Just checked my retirement countdown - ninety days (sixty working days plus weekends, public holidays, and my remaining leave) to go.

Rather pleased about that...

Exactly - REALLY looking forward to it.

Getting short, eh? Be careful out there. ;)

Don't even think it...

Then whatever you do, don't stand near blokes showing photos of their little daughter back home! :-)

Bet that blows past like smoke in the trees.

More like treacle - the quiet time of the year at work for me is may to july, always feels like forever. This time I'll have a lot of admin etc, to sort for my successor, but it'll still be a PITA to get through the terms.

Hurrah! But please be careful. I had a colleague who was counting down, not just by the day, but even by the hour. She fell off a horse, broke her leg, and missed the zero hour whilst hobbling on crutches!

REALLY trying not to do that too much which is why 90 took me slightly by surprise. Agree, it would not be fun to screw up at the last minute!

Any plans for a retirement bash? Getting a gold watch, or in your case, a gold test lead?

Waiting to see - I've been dropping MacBook Pro shaped hints but we shall see what happens.
