I will thank you all in advance.
As I've told Janet in a PM, the postman arrived this morning with a post office cheque from H.M.'s Governemnt for me taking full early retirement at 60.
Straight down to the post office, so I doubt I'll be making much sense by midnight.
I've just been told that my whole family, daughters, sons-in-law and grand-children are taking me out on a marathom pub crawl at 2:30. and I have just the sneakiest feeling that this may end up in the bar of Dorking Football Club.
Does anyone know a good lawyer with working experience of ASBO's ?????

Thanks guys !
It was a surprise party at Dorking Football Club, even attended by our Chairman and Vice Chairman.
Needless to say, vast quantities of alcohol were consumed, and I even managed to awake, (courtesy of the cats), at 5:30 am WITHOUT a hangover.
Strangely enough, I've just discovered THREE bottles of Jamesons on the kitchen side, so someone must love me !
