Back in 96 I promised myself I would retire in 2000 and go live on my pensions on a beach in Thailand. In 1998 I met Eva and everything changed, no Thailand, no beach and 10 more years of hard graft.
We retired from the biz in 2008 after Eva's nearly fatal crash which left her with a broken back and neck, she's fine now, and my cancer which made me give up work.
TBH we would of gotten out after the magazines we sold to closed.
We still have the old library for sale.
