Hi Tikay
All good here, sadly not in contact with hardly anyone from Next Door, although I am FB friends with Tom (Tomgoodun) and Paul Jackson (Jac35? You know 'not the poker player', is he still beating you at golf?) I very occasionally pop into the Discord group (I think you're in there too) just to keep an eye on things although there's not a lot of chat about £3 - £5 PLO8 DYMs and MTTs. I really miss the table banter I have to say, it's not the same just being able to post a 'nice hand' or 'you're a pro'.
I played tennis yesterday evening, outdoors, minus 1 feeling like minus 5 apparently, I know I didn't get warm enough to move. They asked if I wanted to play again this evening, thankfully we are out to the theatre, it should be warmer there. I even played a 1st team match the other weekend, I am now 60 so it's a sad reflection of the youth of today that we couldn't get 4 younger, fitter, better players out. We lost obv.
It sounds like you have it all sorted at the moment, I enjoy reading about your ventures, please keep us updated.
I am very, very nearly retired. Contracts being drawn up and hope to be out in a few months after the hand over. I will certainly miss my clients but won't miss the BS and paperwork. I hope I enjoy retirement as much as you do.

Yes, I pop into the Sky Poker Discord from time to time, but it's all very quiet these days.
Paul Jackson aka Jac35? Yes, we keep in touch but have not golfed for a few months as he's had quite a big knee operation, knee-replacement or something similar I think. He's on the mend now, the rehab stage, & when he's able to play golf again, we've agreed to have a knock at my Club.
Great news on your impending retirement. I know how hard you've worked, & you deserve a long & happy retirement. If it's half as happy as mine, you'll have done well. (Hope that does not come across as a chirp). The only problem is that life is divided into chapters - childhood, working life, retirement, & then the final chapter. Gill does not like me reflecting on that, but it's pragmatic, we only live for so long. So make sure you enjoy every day of retirement, & keep me posted please.
How are all the animals at Chez Enut? And the Downstairs staff?
