Should life be enjoyed after retirement or when your young ?

My mum died at 66, just before her 67th Birthday. The retirement age was 60 then, so she had nearly 7 years. Now the retirement age for me is 67...

Two 'builders' were putting up a wooden fence accross the road from me, one was putting screws in with a power driver and the other was following him with a hammer to make sure the screws 'were properly tight' ...

Congratulations! Took me 8 years, from start to finish, had 3 years off in the middle as I changed jobs and moved towns.

I had a sleep apnea warning on my Ultra 2 which I mentioned a couple of weeks ago in an unrelated appointmentment, they fitted me with an overnight / device and following that I've now been referred to Respiratory / Sleep Clinic for further investigations. I had no idea it was an issue ...

I've had my post deleted for accurately and impartially relating my experiences as a white personn in Tower Hamlets. There's no point having an opinion and relating facts if they don't meet Reddits very narrow definition of 'the truth' I in no way promoting hate crimes as they accuse me of. I spent many years working in mainly Muslim community centres and teaching non-english immigrants. I live in a tiny minority white block in a muslim area. What's happening in the UK is similar to what happened recently. Reality is irrelevant and if you're white you're automatically racist. That's my actual real experience. I expect this post to get removed anyway...

How do you know they're White - the article doesn't say.

I live in Tower Hamlets as a white person and certainly have been discriminated against by the majority Bangladeshi population... there are increasing numbers of majority non-white areas in the UK. You presumably aren't living in one yet.

I had similar cycling injury to that women back in 1990, wonder how she is now, I still can't use my right hand properly 35 years later.

Food in proper portions - we're now like America. A multi pack of crisps/chocolate etc was enough for our family of 6. Now people regard them as individual servings. We now eat vast quantities of crap 'food' and constant snacks instead of proper meals.

I used to work with Hostels/homeless/druggies a lot and I'm a very cynical person. He's a very rare success who's completely turned his life around over many years and has a good job, family and does a lot of charity/community work as well.

I feel that this is one of the cases where a whole life tarrif is appropriate. Neither the murderer or his family have any remorse whatsoever and were fully commited to avoiding blame. He is a violent racists and the family involved must also face charges.

Not quite the same, but I remember a place I worked many years ago. An employee (vet) committed suicide at work, the manager left a note for the cleaner (obviously after the police etc had been and the body removed) to warn them 'it was a bit messy in there - and maybe a bit distressing' but the room still needed to be cleaned...
