New start

Good evening, after many years of night work, my body has finally called enough, as on my home Monday morning I had to pull over, as I thought I was having a heart attack. That morning the doctor's surgery got me straight in. I was immediately signed off work for a month, and an appointment for an ECG is being arranged, and I now have a heart monitor from the doctor. Needless to say I will now be retiring from work, due to my health, and looking forward to my new start.
