I can't believe it's Saturday already either, and that October has simply flown by, but it does seem the older we get it the faster the time goes.

I was told something similar on a 'Time management' course at work. We were also told that it was important to keep busy in retirement otherwise you can literally "die of boredom".

Yes, that's just it Moyra. The way it is speeding now, I will be using up the last of my breath allowance before I'm ready!
