I am a manager in a logistic company, 5 years ago managed to buy a real estate on the French Riviera https://tranio.com/france/cote_d_azur/ and now I happily rent it out for about 10-11 month of average and spend my vacations there when it's free of clients. Brings some good money I must say.

Another bus driver here. I was only going to do it for six months. That was 27 years ago.

Eight years of my sentence left (Hopefully)

Trained as a precision Instrument maker in the 60's, then many years in less precision engineering. Last 30+ years as an excavator driver (even less precision). Now after 3 years of retirement, intending to do more European touring on my GL 1800 Goldwing I find myself in hospital recovering from a very big Bowel cancer surgery! :shock: Progress is slow and steady Cheers, Pete.
