FTFYOriginally posted by FatLazyContractor View PostI'd suggest that you spend a couple of weeks at Cape D'agde in France. You see both inspiration and depression there:
Inspiration - Good ladies bouncing their tits on the beach.
Depression - Having to see FatLazyContractor waving his willy in your face.
You will be a traumatised man, son!

I like to plan to go away for the winter.
Currently on the bench, summer is nice, but if I get a job, can't see taking winter off this year.
Best not to find a job

That's my thoughts. I went away last winter and I was planning to do the same this winter.Originally posted by alreadypacked View PostI like to plan to go away for the winter.

However my current contract finishes today. Do I want another contract before this winter? Not really.
Do I need another contract? I compared the warchest survival period to the planned retirement date and behold! They overlap.
