Thanks for the comments guys, my GP told me that there are a lot of people my age doing the same, retiring early but then taking on some less stressful roles, which is my plan.....

Paperwork completed on one job offer this morning, got home to find written confirmation of a verbal offer last Friday, a Hertfordshire company based just a few miles away from where I worked when in Hertfordshire, but working up here. This should come with 20 core hours per week during term time + other work available during school holidays, they are just waiting for Middlesbrough Council to sign the contract...........

3 more applications in, one interview next week. All these are zero hour contracts, except the 20 hour, which is hopefully going to happen, so I see myself either in great demand or no work at all, in which I have 2 fall back plans of guaranteed part time employment. A little bit scary but really exciting at the same time..............

Good luck!

Happy retirement, old boy.

A wise decision.

Fingers crossed it all works out for you

Got a phone call, followed by an email with an offer of 16 hour contract as an Autism Resource Worker, starting Monday............

In addition to some hours as an Outreach Worker with the same charity, and still have an offer from another company..........

Turned down, today a 3 months work via an agency, and withdrew 2 applications with Barnardo's, having been invited to Interview, same job, 2 locations..........

Yet sent in another CV tonight............

Still have an interview next week, looking like being spoilt for choice; all to top up my pension............
