Any plans for the bank holiday weekend?

I guess most of you are retired so it's just another weekend, but to some of us who still have to work to pay your state pensions, it's a glorious holiday even if we do nothing at all?

Are you going anywhere special this weekend?

It's a holiday?

Not one here, I'm afraid. It is the end of the university term so the most important people in my life are studying like mad. Once that is over with, though, we have booked a week in a tropical locale. It's been forever since we did something like this, so I'm really looking forward to it.

For now it's work, cleaning, painting, cleaning, editing, cleaning, running, cleaning, surfing, cleaning....and cleaning.

Aw sorry Surfermom, I'm rubbing salt in the wounds. Different country, different holiday I guess.
You can get me back on the 4th July, Thamksgiving or on Martin Luther King day!

Actually, it's my dad's birthday, so it's very sporting of you all to make a holiday of it. He will be 85 .

Haven't decided what to do with the week-end yet - I have a new Craft Machine on order so, if it arrives in time, I may be learning how to use it.
One thing is for certain - I will not out in a car!!

Re: Any plans for the bank holiday weekend?

I will be out somewhere testing some new camera gear ive got, maybe off to a secret location with my marra in the hope of some Red Squirrel band a nice set of mixed birds.
Its well away from the coast where all the hoards of lazy workers descend when they should be at graft so us pensioners dont have to struggle.
