You've just reminded me of something Nick. On my very first week as an analyst/programmer at Rolls-Royce, one of the old lags in the office was about three weeks from retiring. He'd been there since the '60s and he was counting the days. And I remember him saying to me, with a wry smile, "you've got about 35 years to go, haven't you Jim?"
He knew I was 29, and people typically retired at 64 in those days.
And now I think about it, that'll be 35 years ago in August.
