Loopzilla 1 Posted June 12, 2013 Predominantly worked offshore in the Oil & Gas industry, but after meeting my wife I changed to onshore work as a service engineer. Was made redundant however, and after several months on the dole I made the decision to invest my redundancy package into returning into education as a mature student. Graduated last year with a BEng Hons (1st) and now working back within the petrochemical sector in an onshore management role. Loved my time back at school and applied myself much more than I ever did first time around! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,531 Posted June 12, 2013 U Boat captain in the second world war, emigrated to East Anglia after the war, played for Norwich City until 1957, then joined the foreign legion in North Africa fighting the French and then came back, played the guitar in a top rock band, had several number ones, and became a full blown hippie in the sixties. The drugs got to my brain and have been suffering delusions ever since. Worst delusion was that I was a U boat captain in the second world wa.......Ok, I''ll get my hat......[:(] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ricardo 7,395 Posted June 13, 2013 Work? nah, done with all that.Lots of sitting in coffee bars and easing myself into the day with a couple of Americano''s and a read of all the papers. Perhaps a trip to the coast if the weather is fine or a nice lunch at Cafe Rouge or Carluccio''s. The afternoon, maybe a couple of pints of Peroni at my local wine bar and a scan through the holiday brochures.It''s hard folks, believe me it''s really hard being retired.[;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
