Getting started, pensions and jobs

Hello and welcome to my first post. I've been blogging for some time, but this is related to one of my part time jobs. The website is http://www.walkbristol.co.uk/ and the blog is here http://walkbristolramblings.blogspot.com/. I hope the standard will improve over the months AND that I will have something interesting to say. Let me know if I'm just rambling and not saying anything new. I will just be talking about the things I do, the jobs I apply for, the epiphanies (if any) resulting from the OU degree I've just started. Don't be shy! I'd love to receive your comments - good or bad (although any abuse will be instantly deleted), and any questions you have about anything I will try to answer in my own inimitable way.

I had a visit today by my nice young financial advisor to talk further about a pension, I shall be getting a letter to download and sign tomorrow to transfer all the funds from one scheme to a pension scheme! I really can't get to grips with the fact that I will have to retire one day and need to make sure that I have some income, especially if there is no State Pension available by the time I get there.

I also applied for a job the other day! it is at a new Holiday Inn that is opening in March. I've a read receipt for the email I sent with a current CV, but that's all, so far. I'll let you know when I hear any more.
