What I actually mean by "retire" is that now i'm on this amazing tariff with Virgin, I won't be looking to change either my handset or tariff for a very,
very long time - ideally i'll keep both indefinitely.
I've spent many, many years upgrading and moving around networks to get better deals, sometimes worse deals if it means a better, "sexier", handset as well. I've also bought and sold on a good few handsets second hand as well, so all of that will be over now. Realistically it sort of stopped some years ago due to financial constraints, but i've still chopped and changed networks a few times and i've also changed my handset a few times since then.
Obviously, as a bloke, I'll still be interested in the gadget-y side of things, but that's it
