Me too Eric. Been running down for a few years now and at the point where I can't be a**ed and bills like accountant etc don't make sense vs turnover. So March 31st it is. We can flood the market with used gear in the new year. All the best.

Well that is good news. It is freedom as long as you dont fret about stuff you cant influence! Good luck to the both of you. I will wait for Eric to come down or until I buy a motorhome and come to UK when I will bring some champagne to celebrate.

I'm kind of in the same boat, semi retired but what I am doing is not worth doing. I'll have to have a good think.

I recemtly found myself telling clients I am 'not available on that day' for no other reason than, I need to get the garden winter pruning done. Lol Actually....finding the garden more fun than shooting hotels, machinery and kitchen installations!

Called getting your life back. Totally absorbed for 30 plus years in press and pr world. Had great fun but ops two years back made me think just like your incident in Italy Eric. There is another world out there.

There is another world out there. It's too easy to get stuck in a groove. I was like that in my previous career...until 20 years ago my wife had a brain tumour. It jolted me out of the corporate groove and into working from home and ...the photography groove. Lol Like you I have been slowly winding down, allowing the business to wither on the vine, so to speak. You reach a point where you look at the business expenses and realise they are becoming significant relative to income. A friend of mine recently said he was 'working to fund the business.' So I am stopping before that happens! I am also struggling with a 91yr old father living 150miles away...making another groove....up the A1.

I'm the same with a 95 year old aunt in Birmingham with no other relatives. I know the M5 really well.

When I can talk myself (and her indoors) to let me get rid of the fast len's and heavy cameras, then that's the point I know I've retired.

Iain, Get yourself a Fuji X series camera that seems to have been the turning point for Eric.
