Finished last Friday, the 12th. Because the first working day after new year is a Friday we've been given that as an extra days annual leave so I'm not back until the 5th.

I get no holidays off unless they fall on a normal scheduled off day. Sometimes I still have to work.

I've been on 'holiday' since June of this year. I tried to find a job but eventually gave up.I'm now attending College part-time which is quite strange at 55.

Today is my last class for 2 weeks. Time for some serious gaming biggrin

Sounds like you need a hobby. No pc gaming?

22nd till the 8th, but have to go in from time to time and supervise the girls doing archery. Hope they don't find a snake like last year at the same period. I'm from NZ - we don't do snakes! Classes for me stopped about two weeks ago though, so I've been in quasi-holiday mode for a while now. I love it.

I wish, if it snows I`ll be working through my 12th Christmas out of 21 years. New years, no different.
