Until I decided to make the leap into retirement, I thought about it the same way a lot of people do: it was all about slowing down and grabbing your slippers. But retirement has turned out to be one of the busiest times of my life.
Before I left full-time work in 2016, I’d had a varied career. I’d been in the music business, writing and producing underground house tracks with my band, Q-Rius. One of my records, Peace and Love, enjoyed some success in the US in the 1990s, but after spending six months in Los Angeles promoting it, I became a bit disillusioned with the industry – it was just too overwhelming.
