Bank Holidays?

I hate them. You have to work twice as hard for the week before and after to make up for the lost time. Everybody is rushing round and swearing at each other. Everywhere is crowded and the weather is usually rubbish!

Happy Easter.

Ah, but as a shift-worker they mean nothing to me!

topman · 23rd March 2016, 18:27

A shorter working week? Yes please!

coolcat · 23rd March 2016, 18:52

Me......I love 'em as its about the only days off I get

Still, Bank Holiday traffic living in a Seaside town does make getting about a bit of a no no

I love them, I'm actually having a weekend away this time

Shocking development, next thing you know I'll have a social life

Being retired I also hate Bank Holidays because it means the roads are crowded with people who ought to be at work.

I just feel really sorry for the folks who look forward to them and see their long weekend ruined with bad weather and crowds of selfish folks who want everything "Now"!

Note to caravanners - check your tyres for cracks before you set off please. I get fed up of queueing whilst the matchwood and personal belongings are cleared off the A47 and A17 !!!
