(Bob Hoffman)
Dare I suggest that you visit my own Retirement Tips and RV Stuff website? I've been adding to it since 1999, so I'd hope there might be something worthwhile there. I've included a few relevant Retirement Planning links from my site below, but there's a lot more info on the website (e.g. How Much Do I Need? Working While Wandering; Ways to Retire Early; Unretirement Tips; and more)
AND, if you'd like to read about retiring in the UK ...
