Ric! Hi! I've been waiting for you! How have you been going? Hope you are well, and being well looked after.

Sammy - I understand your worry. Man that's tough, and I hope you get some good answers soon.

Hearing what you guys have to say about work, I'm thinking increasingly that i will drop full time work from 20 or 22 weeks, then go casual, so do 1-3 days a week of shorter hours. For as long as I want to. I still ride my bike to work, so don't know how long I will do that for. I do love it. Talked to DH about finance, and he's happy for me to stop any time. We've planned for 3 more weeks, but then nothing, so if I do 4-6 more weeks and then a few odd hours, that will definitely be welcome.
