ATM daughter has 'plans' for me to buy close to her...... ATM I have plans for flat so I can leave it and travel ...Ive seen a few possibles but keeping very quiet as its not what 'Family' want....Sadly I won't manage boat solo which was what I wanted but there is no reason why I cannot get my fix in other ways. I love the water and for few years I just want the freedom to up sticks when the urge strikes. I feel bit trapped. I really don't want their well intentioned opinions to control what I want. So I am co-operating and also seeking what is right.... I can see trouble ahead.. Who's the Mummy round here? You go for your pied a terre, then get out there. Any bother from the spawn, put them over your knee and spank them! It's your life. There's an acronym lurking, about spending the kids inheritance having fun, like NIMBY, but it's not surfacing from the depths. SKIing

Where you thinking of going if the cottage sells? ATM daughter has 'plans' for me to buy close to her...... ATM I have plans for flat so I can leave it and travel ...Ive seen a few possibles but keeping very quiet as its not what 'Family' want....Sadly I won't manage boat solo which was what I wanted but there is no reason why I cannot get my fix in other ways. I love the water and for few years I just want the freedom to up sticks when the urge strikes. I feel bit trapped. I really don't want their well intentioned opinions to control what I want. So I am co-operating and also seeking what is right.... I can see trouble ahead.. exactly what we are thinking of once retired. ideally a year or so on a narrow boat covering the system, health notwithstanding, then an apartment with a well serviced lift to allow us to close it up and go travelling when the mood takes us.
