Freedom

Of course today is Independence Day. For those of you who do not understand the historical significance of the day, the Gorse Fox will explain.

It is six years ago today that the Gorse Fox retired from Starfleet. Six years during which he has woken every morning hardly able to believe that he doesn't have to go to work... and is still being paid. Six years where the only travel he has had to do is for pleasure. Six years where he hasn't had to do then moderate staff appraisals. Six years where he hasn't had to deal with asinine project deadlines that bear no resemblance to reality. Six years where he hasn't had to fight his way through the Tube network or the main London train termini. Six blissful years.

(Oh, he should probably mention that it is a holiday in the US also, but they really didn't have to go to that extent)
