    After a few months of being bored I'm gagging for the latter TBH - far too young to retire really and my other interests aren't grabbing me full time.
    How can you be bored? You must seriously lack imagination if you can't find something interesting to do with your time that isn't work.

      Phew!

      Though once you find the Mary Poppins type don't take your son to the bank. He will only cause a run on the assets.

          Maybe. I've just about come to the end of my Maffs Masters. Thought id try my hand at writing a book but looks like i hvae no talent in that direction.
          And there's lots of easy money to be had in analytics/modelling/BI at the mo. I feel I should milk that seam before it dries up.

            If you want to make money, fair enough. But unable to keep yourself interested?

                It's harder than it seems. Funny enough I miss going into the office. Fook me the other day I started missing the commute.
                Staying at home in the autumn isn't that great. Still, picking up my GT 86 Thursday that shouldcheer me up ....
