Life after contracting

[jamesbrown]

Just got lucky really with house prices but around here not much is moving.

Im also planning on buying a Toyota Hilux and selling my car.

Its all planned but you know plans of mice and men.

For £600k, you can get a nice flat above a kebab shop in Brum.

Burnley is quite posh nowadays, compared to Darwen

Loads of new housing going up between Preston -> Lytham (which is actually nice).

Hull isn't in the "North West" - unless you're setting off from Paris.

Was planning on semi-retiring and moving to the highlands, found the perfect area. I've put the house up for sale unfortunately just as things turned down in the economy and people arent spending their Covid money.

If any of you down south lot with a bit of spare cash, want to move to the beautiful north west and have 600k to spare let me know.

Anyway, until then dreams of retiring are on hold.

As I approach my longest stint on the bench in, what - 18 years or so, this is something I need to give some serious thought.

I'm seriously thinking about doing something quite menial like buying a pickup and pulling in some landscaping work, Relatively minimal initial outlay and bags of work to be had judging by all the posts on local FB pages; obviously not anywhere near the renumeration of an IT gig but with my mortgage almost paid up, I could certainly do this so long as my body holds together....

...and I thnik it would make me a lot happier.
