It is for the over 50's although I have to say that I don't find them particularly cheap.

I'm looking forward to the big 60 in a couple of years - actually can't wait as I can retire then.

My body is definitely letting me know it's there now. Got a really bad back at the moment.

Actually if I look at it in terms of retirement, I can retire the day before my 55th birthday.... bring it on.

I could have gone a couple of years ago if my employer had let me but they didn't.

They can't stop me when I hit 60 though. The plus side I suppose is that my pension will be that much better.

Well Kallis, there is no incentive for me to stay on. My pension forecast reads the same whether I retire at 55, 60 or 65. So at 55 I am out, unless they bring in a VEDS package worth having (unlikely though). Ooops, sorry we seem to have hi-jacked this thread.

We do don't we????

Mine does get better each month thankfully as it's public sector.

Yes, I am public sector too, that is unless we get privatised in the meantime. Bloomin' hope not.
