Winding down.

As from tomorrow I'm winding down my workloads aiming to be off the road by January February (semi retirement as I am 60) and spending more time on a few other little ongoing ventures, I already sell items of furniture and even the odd antique. Many thanks to all that have covered work for me and thanks to those who I have worked for in the past.

[name], good luck in what ever you do i have had a good laugh at some of the comments you have put on the forum's i am 65 cut my work load down last year only do work for a couple of my customer's now, their items are light so no heavy lifting

Good luck [name]. I am cutting down too by stopping going south on a friday afternoon, it just aint worth the hassle.

To be honest [name] since I was 60 in August it's been one long party, Algarve, Barcelona and a three day celebration at my house

Gave all my Sameday customers up earlier this year as got fed up waiting 60,90,120 days for payment. Now I pick up deliver and get paid cash there and then.
I always go double manned for the lifting.

Fair play on slowing down [name] and working on alternative types of business.

I bet the tax man loves you with all that cash your collecting! :-/

Can never fathom out why suppliers with there own payment terms would allow 60,90 + days for payment. I certainly wont accept it.. Anyway good luck and all the best on your retirement.

DHL where my main customer who at the peak where using me to supply up to 5 vans daily, so when they said 120 days I'm afraid it would take a brave man/courier to turn away 20+jobs per week all paying top rates.

Hi H, it's not me who lives in a large new 4 bed roomed house and drives a flashy car and who has just had a lavish wedding and a very expensive honeymoon :-) All offset against the business I suspect (not) Hope both you and the gorgeous Mrs H are well.

Why not just stick a driver in your van and you sit back if it pays well?

Good luck [name]. Hope your new venture works out ok. Been a pleasure doing work for you. I wish others would phone me up and tell me my quotes were too low ! Hope you still stay on mtvan and continue to impart your pearls of wisdom! We need someone to replace [name] from Speed who seems to have deserted us!

You cant blame him!

I remember when I began my private pension at 21 the adviser asked when I'd like to retire, I said 30 ;-)
