well here we are, sat on a motorway bridge over the M56 doing lives for breakfast news about pot holes. Brilliant…..
Who else is working today then?

*raises hand*

But then I work every day I'm not on leave. 12 hours a day, 7 days a week, 40 weeks a year. 😀

It's a holiday?

I'll join the gang. Quite pleased about it as well.

Empty office and phones on divert to voicemail.

Off Friday instead as we're heading for Fort William for the World Cup.

😀

Yup, leaving in 5mins.

Yep, just woke up. We don't get any public holidays, except Christmas and that comes out our holiday allowance. 🙁

On the bright side I can afford to leave 15 minutes later this morning.

Yup from home though document to write, no BH for me but get an extra day around Xmas / New Year.

and another one here

Not a holiday here, but Thursday is.

Yep, I'm off in an hour, but I don't mind, I like working 😛

Oh yes, nice & sunny today after pi**ing down most of yesterday 🙄
Heading north to Orkney on Friday though, calling into Balblair + Golspie on the way, so the futures bright!

No bh for me . Just got 29 days as and when + xmas , day after and new years and day after.

Hope its a quiet one at work – legs are buckled after 500k round the northern tip of scotland this weekend

Off for once done ok this year normaly work them all.

Yeah, not until 12 though, then finish at 9 before a 500 mile drive down to London overnight. First long journey for the new baby too, so could be hell.

Not sure if it's holiday in Scotland or not, but we get most of the bank holidays added to our annual leave entitlement so can choose to work them or take then off.

I quite like working bank holidays as I can get stuff done as it's quiet.

hey martyns yup stuck in my windowless MCR again, not got much on today. Atleast your outside doing stuff.

working from home today – sole point of contact for our backoffice. Hopefully they'll all be out the office by 3…

yup – no holiday in Spain today but Thursday is, so I'll be out riding then in the hot hot heat.

Also in.

Don't actually mind working bank hols as the roads to most places I want to get to are usually like car parks.

Chris

Quite a weird feeling. The road to work was completely empty (it's usually nose-to-tail) and I'm the only person here in the entire 8 floor office block I'm working in.

I'm half expecting to find all my co-workers have been turned into brain-eating zombies.

Another one working here.

yup – no holiday in Spain today but Thursday is, so I'll be out riding then in the hot hot heat.

What's the holiday? I'll also be getting the Friday off, 4 day weekend for me. 😆

Yup Thursday is the holiday here

I'm the only one in our lab so far. However, it does mean I can crank the radio up (might change it over from 5 Live first), and my experiment seems to have worked and I'm going to bunk off early so I can go play on my bike later.

Not all bad then. 😆

*raises hand*

Quietly quie glad to be in work today. Gets me away from decorating my girlfriends flat which seems to be harder work than work 🙂

At work all day (near Leeds). Joys of working in the transport industry!

Yip stuck in this hell hole till 5 🙁

What's the holiday? I'll also be getting the Friday off, 4 day weekend for me.

Thursday is Corpus Christi. It's not usually a holiday but because so many of the other usual holidays this year have fallen at the weekend, they have made Corpus a holiday to keep up the numbers!

Yup, all day Sat, 14 hours yesterday and this afternoon.

Yep, I work all Bank Holidays as well. But off for 11 days from Thursday including Fort Bill World Cup. 😀

Working here but get day off in lieu so not all bad

No holiday in India, but I'll take it lieu when convenient

Cheers, Rich

In work all day on my own but I'll be off on Friday as heading to Fort Bill for the world cup 😀

In work tonight 🙁
Technically I'm off friday, so it's not all bad I suppose.

I'm in today. I work three shifts, sun mon tues days at moment. So tomorrow is friday 😀

Waves to MartynS. Will anybody be watching the pothole stuff?

Shame you have to work as me and mr bh. wanted to go riding with you. 😥

yep were in and open….so far its been a tumbleweed morning.just trying to get motivated to finish of a lengthy tender doc..

Waves to MartynS. Will anybody be watching the pothole stuff?

no….! we got cleared at 8.30. home now, might go out later, depends what 'er in doors wants to do

i am working through choice rather than joining the great unwashed in bank holiday hell. collecting strategic info, ring-fencing choice clients, and learning Portuguese. the reality is, it's dreary and shite, but now is a good day for it.

At work too, start at 2 for 9 1/2 hour

Not working but doing some proper spring cleaning. 😥
