I like being retired because...

There are lots of reasons I'm enjoying retirement, but today it has to be because for the first time in my life I can watch any Wimbledon match I want when it is actually being played.

Great match between Nadal and Klizan!

Can't think of anything better Ania

I agree with you about the Nadal and Klizan, a couple of hard hitters there, great game!

I like being able to take off on trips/holidays/days out at a moment's notice. Like getting AWAY from Wimbledon/World Cup/Olympics etc etc etc.

Mostly I can do what I want, when I want and can take a holiday at short notice if I wish.

Because I don't have to rush around in the morning getting ready for work and can relax over my mug of coffee.

Forgot to add, being able to take a daytime nap if I felt like it. Often go to bed, sometimes for over an hour.
