That sounds like a list from geriatrics and general Frank!

I think that apart from Dave and me, most of them are either retired or just part-time workers... tumbleweed

Brian,
Isn't the current phrase, " A portfolio career"?

I can say this with impunity becuase I've never had a real job! hide

Best wishes,

The "Too Old/Too Fat Roadster" is here at Cummins of Bodmin for £49150.
Apart from the HillsAlive box not matching the angle of the luggage carrier, look at the nearside spotlamp. What's that all about then...... thinking confused2

As I said earlier on Mogtalk, 700 miles since June 09 is good going for an old fat bloke. I'm suspecting that 'the passenger' has told him to get rid for what he paid.

I wish I lived in Cornwall..... sunny

Isn't that from my favourite management guru: Charles Handy? Have you read his books Gerwyn, he has had a very interesting career from salaried expat with Shell, to working in Windsor Castle to management guru and Professor (from memory!) - a real portfolio career. coffee

Oh God. I've been rumbled! That's my fuddy duddy, tweed-jacketed( with leather patches,) ivory tower academic pose out of the window.

Hi Smiffmog,
I suspect it's as much to do with financial situation and circumstance as age. I got my first Mog at 51, promised myself that I'd have one "one day" since I was 16 but it wasn't until the kids had grown up and my finances allowed it that I could indulge myself.
