Very best wishes, Brian, for your 'retirement' I, too, have just turned 80
-- obviously 1936 was a Vintage Year! Good pre-war quality!
Your bobbin collection, and all your writings have been wonderful, and I am
sure all Lacemakers will join me in saying Thank You for your efforts to
help
Hi Nolene
This has brought me out of lurkdom, it's definitely for me. I'm hoping to

my mind all the things I want to do, especially lace, as I'm not getting time
to do any at the moment due to family
.

Hi Alison,
Do not forget that it is your life too when you retire. It is great to see
and look after your grandson but do make sure you
Hi Noelene and fellow Arachnids,
This lovelypoem is soo true. In retirement one seems to have less time for
oneâs craft than ever. What happens I think is all the other people
thinking;- âWe can ask her/him to do so and so as they are retired and have
plenty of time on their hands.â
Dear Noelene,
I love your poetry, and have saved this one as well. You put things so very
well.
But, taking the sense of your poem, Retirement seems to do that. I am a
morning person, and so I tend to get up at 5 a.m. Since retired people
generally don't have to be breakfasted, dressed and
Just read this motto on a tea shirt - 'The trouble with retirement is that you
never get a day off!'

Retirement.
They all promised me
when retirement was due,
I'd be doing so much with my lace.
I'd have oodles of time
To plan and create,
And have projects all over the place.
But then the day came,
And I planned to sit down
With all of that thread that I'd bought.
With pins and my pillows
And
I agree Noelene 100%.
Another great poem.
