Today I celebrate my sixty fourth birthday. Celebrate,
because I have only one year before collecting my State Pension and escaping
the indignities and ravages of the job market. Last year I took the further
opportunity of early retirement from a 35 year career in the public sector,
feeling confident that I would pick up some part-time work to see me through to
giving up paid employment and—ever the
cynical optimist—enjoying the virtues and
obscurity of old age.
