the_stig 6,614 Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Maybe to get away from you stig, she's willing to work you still work anyhow, doing your dabbling in antiques. she said she couldn't be around me all day every day --she`s a busy bee type I`m more feck it tomorrow will do I don't think I could pack up altogether the thought of not turning a profit on something would do my head in ......I get a buzz out of buying and selling I know a lot of people in the trade and its good craic round the auctions and antique fairs I`d miss it to much ..

unlacedgecko 1,466 Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 I trucking like a moron at the moment, but I've got a plan. Will be retired by 50, if not earlier... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sussex 5,777 Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 I cashed in the house about 9 years ago , cleared the mortgage , bought a derelict barn in a couple of acres, no neighbours, bought an £800 caravan and lived in that for 6 years ,froze in winter , boiled alive in the summer but enjoyed it .Spent the time working on the place & stalking , wife does her little job , bit by bit its come together but still got some work to do . Had to build workshop etc so I put a coldroom in as well .\Only had the place valued because someone at the south of England show pestered me ...Our plan was to sell up , by a couple of flats , a motor home & do a couple of years touring Europe, my wife's always wanted to travel round Italy & France so with relatives in spain it could be a 2 year job . The valuation would meet that dream and some even before its finished so we are well pleased . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
