Yippppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeee - 3 Days off!

Got a spray tan last night and am ready for the sunshine!

Going to a spring charity ball tomorrow night so really excited - Nice to get tarted up for a change.

Sons is playing in his footie cup final in Ascot - Out for dinner with friends on Sunday (this feels good cos normally sundays are for preparing for the working week ahead so top bonus)

Monday picking bezzie mates up from Airport after their Vegas trip (hopefully I will still be looking tanned and she will be clutching a rather lovely designer pressie for me!)

It is my birthday in 10 days ! :thumbup1:

    Sounds like a brilliant weekend, the highlight of my bank holiday weekend is getting rid of son for 2 nights so I can try to get my dining room decorating finished and furniture back in!!
    Also get some studying done for units 8 & 9.

    my hubby is on his way to the army navy rugby match at twickenham tomorrow - he set off at 6 this morning. I am hoping to get my patio pressure washed and then some studying done for 8&9 also.

    Are you all off on Monday or today? over here in germany it is shutdown today - nothing is open, except petrol stations and pubs!!!

    Enjoy your long weekend

    Bank holidays provide me with the opportunity to fit five days work into 4!
    So i'll be working:thumbdown: Preparing all the weekly sales reports and as it's the first day of the month lots of monthend reports too! After all that i can start doing the retrospective credit notes for customers to send out with their statements. At least it'll be quiet at work and sometimes it rains on bank holidays

    I'm taking eldest lad to watch Xmen Wolverine tonight, 2nd son playing footy tomorrow and a fourtieth (Abba Tribute) at night (no kids yipeeeee) then watch the mighty reds stuff Newcastle Sunday.

    Got to work Monday which is a nightmare but joys of being own boss.

    Not in construction we get 2 days at Christmas and 1 at New year although most of the companies shut for 2 weeks.

    I get 29 days a year - think the difference is Fair Monday and 2 days at September Weekend.
