Time for a Break
We finish at work on Thursday at 4.30 p.m. for the Christmas and New Year break.Total luxury! Chill-out time at long last. Won't be going back until 4 January so guess what I'm going to do? NOWT but just relax!
When batteries are re-charged I'll be like a new woman! I couldn't give up working.

Re: Time for a Break
I certainly am looking forward to it lass. I do enjoy being an integral part of the company I work for and I do grump on the odd occasion, but I love it really and it would break my heart if I had to stop working. Blimey, I'm part of the furniture having worked there for 28 years, but I do need the break.

Re: Time for a Break
Your lucky Mollie I don't finish until lunchtime Friday and have to go back Wed - Fri next week. Its our busiest time of year so don't get any extra time off.
Just think of the money and get on with it. Its one of the reasons why I don't like Christmas as well.

We used to all congregate in a nearby pub Jem but, as one of our oldest electricians is retiring proper as of tomorrow, there'll be a buffet and drinkypoos. Missus Mollie won't be drinking though because she'll have to drive home.
The reason I won't be back at work till 4 January is because I've saved a week's holiday entitlement for the Christmas break. Most of us do that, but there will be on-call electricians over that period.
Wrinkly, don't know if you've read my poems yet, but I haven't written any for a long while now.
