    I remember when I was 30 and thinking the same as you. Now I'm 40 and married with children and still thinking the same as you. If you plan to have a house, wife and kids you can use my retirement planning scheme. Its called "keep working". phone me for details and an application pack.

          I was digging in the yard today
          When a letter came from Southampton way
          Keep on working
          Keep on working
          I must admit I was a bit in the red
          But if you never have pleasure then you could be dead
          Keep on working
          Keep on working

          But there's on thing
          They can't take away
          Hear the sea sing
          See a smiling face
          I think we're OK
          Though we all could be mad
          That's what they say
          We just can't all be bad



          I got something now to think about
          I'll work all day but not to pay it out
          Keep on working
          Keep on working
          Don't care if they say where a dying race
          I'd rather be here than any other place
          Keep on working
          Keep on working

          And there's another whirl
          They can't ever touch
          Just need a boy and girl
          It don't cost you much

          And if your luck is in
          you might have kids at play
          To make you laugh and sing
          When you're old and gray

            instead of feeling like im moving into great new, exciting territory, it feels like im having a miniture life crisis.

            no wife, no kids, no home, no posh sports car, just a very temporary lifestyle moving from one robotic office to another making cash..

            Fu.ck me, what is this, the Samaritans or something? Why is everyone so bloody miserable? I've just got a 3 month extension on £400 p/d, I'm still collecting my winning bets from miserable Spurts fans and I've got a ticket for the champs league final next week. Hope that's cheered you up a bit.

              Enough of this handwringing, I saw Carlos Santana in concert in Antwerp last night, had a complete ball, then eating strawberries for lunch today, Brusse;s red light tonight Amsterdam this weekend and next week Ive got two weeks off.

              And Im 46 next week.

              La vie en Rose.

              So there.

              PS Carlos Santana is 59 and still gigging furiously.

                  If you can't get a woman then try buying yourself a motorbike, a guitar and then find some smarmy graduate 'Leadership Programme' type, who everyone despises, and punch him out in the middle of the office. You'll feel a million times better about yourself.

                    By thirty I had travelled to every continent except Antarctica. Had two houses and rented another. Married for some years.

                    You never know what's round the corner, as me mother used to say.

                      Once spent a night on the Samaritans switchboard. 4 callers topped themselves. I wouldn't have minded so muich but three of them were the wrong number.
