Congratulations on your retirement although the time since you told us of your intentions seemed to have passed with extraordinary rapidity!

It is definitely a shame about the change in syllabus. I am sure you have no need of any Dorothy Sayers but if you would like copies of the Ngaio Marsh's let me know. I am sure that they will be easier to find in NZ than almost any other place on earth.

I am looking forward to living vicariously through even more cultural and interesting experiences with you as you begin this next phase of your life

Many congratulations. Although retirement was forced on me a couple of years earlier than planned, I don't regret it for one second. The past year + has been educational, enjoyable and stimulating. It's clear from the things you write that you don't define yourself totally by your job title, which, I think, is the problem many people have with retirement. I wish you a wonderfully rewarding and enjoyable time ahead!
