It’s over as I know it.

Just had a celebratory spot of lunch and a glass of wine with my partner returned home and…… don’t have to check my e mails.

Night out with some of the good folk from work tonight in Lincoln.

As ‘The The’ sang

This is the day when things fall into place

Happy Easter
 
Well done that man. I'll be a week into it as of tomorrow and I have not the slightest regret.
Sleeping better
More time for us
Just feels like there is no pressure/stress to get something done to someone else's (mostly fabricated) timescales
No emails, no Teams chiming away all the time

...and relax...

Looking at that you've earned it.
Hope it goes well for you and all your retirement plans come true.
 
When I read the thread title, I thought you were literally hanging up your playing boots and thought it was a good stint. I packed in playing in my late 40s.
Anyhow enjoy your retirement!
