Memories

So, I took advantage of early retirement......before this government decides to screw me out of everything I've worked for.  State retirement age gets  worse.  I'll never make it!     Pension just covers the rent.  That's it.  Why take early retirement?   Rickety joints. ...... Hurt like FUCK!  Sorry for the language, but it hurts.  You try being all happy and la la when you can't climb up or down stairs, get in the bath, get on or off the loo, put your hair into a pony tail, open jars/bottles, chop food/wipe your arse,  etc.   Makes you extremely bad-tempered, narky...whatever.  Can't do what you want to do..decorate the house, clean the house.......  Fatigue, blah, blah, blah.  Pay all your life into the 'system'.  Does it pay you back?   Bleurghhhh!   Nooooo...you have to pay MORE taxes.  Can you get help with appropriate housing?  You need somewhere without stairs.     Hahahahaha.....joke.   Nooo....pay more taxes..... Got to keep the big guys in council going.  Big fat six figure salaries, while the rest of us live below minimum wage/poverty line.  Gah.  They don't give a shoo about us.   Politicians.  All as bad.  Only ever come round when it's voting time.  Sometimes, they don't even bother with that!  Never mind.  They've got £69,000 minimum to live on per annum....plus expenses....
