I retired from teaching...
Been building up to this for a while. Lots of reasons, but at 60 that's enough. Patience running thin, hearing paying for the years of headphones and, the only way I can describe it, picking up on the high screeching tones!!
Knowing I'm not in the same calibre as the younger generation there...time to move on.

I have been asked twice in the last 10 days or so 'am I missing it?'...no, not a jot. What I will miss over the longer term is watching a group of children grow up - that's been a pleasure.
Highlights? Dell Farm...making friends, maybe not close friends, but more than I had before it started!
Found out I had Very High Blood Pressure!!
There I was, thinking that I was getting fit...been working on #gettingfitordie and #countdowntoColl for a while, and took part in this years St Albans Walking Half Marathon , along with others from school...did alright as it happens!
Anyway, persuaded to take part in a 'Well Person @ Work' check...nice young lady said me whats your doctors phone number..and promptly phoned and made me an appointment!!
Well, now on statins and blood pressure tablets...oh well!
