Yep I don't have any kids so I volunteer to do the xmas new year thing most years it is OK as no one argues with me when I put in for other holidays I got 2 weeks off from the 12th Jan to make up for it

We're not going away at Christmas. Haven't for a few years.
I'll be off work from this Friday, through to 5 Jan. Got some things I need to do around home.
My lovely is working through. Like Chester, she doesn't get any arguments from colleagues.
We like to take a good break in the middle of the year, usually 6 weeks or so :cup:

Never travel at Christmas. All the families are here.

Finish at work this Friday and go back on the 5th January...

Plenty of odd jobs to get down around the house...  :D

As usual working right through only RDO'S etc off, and thats still not good enough for some of the Eagles above me who wanted me to work on one of my RDO's New Years Eve .... The change in the tone of voice was very noticable when they got the " no " reply..[ worked 16 of the last 20 of them ]..

I will have a couple of 4 day weekends  to finish the work trailer rebuild.

Was looking forward to a slow Christmas/New year, bit of golf,take the boat out, but.
It rained. Then stormed. And rained again. More storms for tomorrow.

Had calls from customers I hadn't seen for 3 months.
The grass is green and growing, the money's flowing but farq it's steamy.
Flat out now.

Plenty to do at mine too, but as I spend all bloody year doing that at other peoples places, I like my 2 week close down and ph turn off and go where no one apart from those invited can talk to me.  ;D

But your more then welcome to come do my odd jobs if you want.  ;D
