Redefining retirement

Princess Alexandra Retirement Village

The meaning of retirement is changing. It’s no longer just about saying goodbye to work - it’s now an opportunity to try something new or keep doing what you love.

It’s no longer just about saying goodbye to work - it’s now an opportunity to try something new or keep doing what you love. Rather than hanging up their hats, many of today’s retirees are redefining this phase by staying active through part-time jobs, volunteering, or even launching new careers.

Living in a retirement village doesn’t necessarily mean you’re done with work either; rather, it offers the opportunity to explore different activities, pursue long-held passions, and discover new interests. In fact, many people find the lifestyle gives them more freedom to stay engaged and active through work they enjoy.

I stopped at the Carlyle Street Dairy today and when I went to leave, my car wouldn't start. Go figure, battery dead, come on who hasn't it happened too. The owner Palak tried with two cars to charge my battery, to no avail. He suggested, I walk down to Marshall Batteries-Williams Auto Electrical, thankfully 2 minutes down the road. I did and without hesitation they came to my aid.
My car is in my garage now plugged into a charger. Thank you boys you are my hero's. I have not been to Marshall's before, but when I need their service that's where I will be going. Carlyle Street Dairy is my local go too, Palak and Ankita are sweethearts and I will always appreciate their service and kindness.
