The Day Has Finally Arrived

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Welcome to the pensioners club Phil, I was probably closer to 68 before they actually stopped messing around and gave me the old farts allowance ... now I gotta find out why they are under paying me :roll: I made it 69 yrs old, I should get a better reward for such a milestone :lol:

I stayed on the disability support as to swap to the oldies pension was so much mucking around.

Dottie,
I gave serious thought to staying on the Disability Pension, but in the end I switched because I couldn't be bothered proving every few years that my spine was not going to miraculously heal itself. Waste of TEM. (Time, Effort & Money :P )

Anyway, Congrats Phil & welcome to the Olde Farts Club! :D
Regards & God bless,
Ray
