    Early Retirement.

    Good luck mate. Wife and me retired early just over 2 years ago and never looked back. Both absolutely loving it. Not even considered looking for a fill in job. Love the freedom and can always find something to do, often making another cuppa 😁. Enjoy it, you've earned it.

    Car Battery

    I also have a Nissan Note, 2010 model. My battery went about 18 months ago . It was still running on the original Nissan battery until then. Just got up one day and couldn't even open the central locking. Sorry I can't remember where I got the replacement battery from.
