Jules wants to know if you find retirement boring? 89 year old Joe Bartley placed an advert in a local newspaper seeking work to stop him "dying of boredom" in his retirement. It read "Senior citizen 89 seeks employment 20hrs+ per week. Still able to clean, light gardening, DIY and anything. Save me from dying of boredom!"
Also in the show, Jules will be joined by Andrew Collins and Stuart Evans from Brittens Music in Tunbridge Wells, as a new study has found that learning to play an instrument could boost your brain power. Incredible brain scans show boosted connections in children after just nine months of practice, contributing to better brain development. But it's not only beneficial for children - research also shows that music stimulates the brain and enhances memory in older people.
