Send off work colleagues in style with these hilarious retirement gifts from About Face

Some people live to work, others countdown the days until they can be a lady of leisure or a guy on the golf course, filling their days with lots of fun things as they enjoy their retirement.

Whatever camp your customers are in – if that’s loving the 9 to 5 or whiling the hours away until they can claim their pension – now is apparently the time of year most people choose to retire. While the average Brit is choosing to work long after the state pension age, according to some sources, the majority of people choose to step down from their working commitments and enjoy a slower pace of life at the end of March and into the beginning of April, so it’s all aligned with the start of the new tax year. Who knew?
