Great thread!
Around the time my sister passed away, my employers gave people the opportunity to buy extra days leave. I buy every one - there's still so much to see / do (and

) and I want to do it while I can.
Too many times I hear / read / have known people who had great plans for travels and other things once they retired, but they never made it to retirement. Another reason I want to retire early - hopefully the voluntary redundancies continue for another couple of years - I might be able to afford it after 15 years here...
Cheers,
