I'm of that age where it seems a lot of people I know are dying. So I made a decision last week to try and improve my quality of life and applied to reduce my working hours. Application approved and actioned within two days so today... I had the first of my non-working days.

Still need to figure out how best to use this time. Had a nice walk today, that's a fair start. Rest of the week will be work as normal.

That's amazing! Well done for going through with it and kudos to your workplace. I'm sure it'll be weird at first but let us know how it goes!

There might be a few charities around you which do coffee meetups, organised walks, gardening together, etc. I heard u3a is good for trying or learning random different things. You could even go for long weekends to different parts of the UK or Europe to see lots of new places. You could do charity work.
