    Working today

    Holiday in Germany today - May 1st. Not only is it Socialist Workers Day (or whatever the hell it is called) it is also Ascension Day and Fathers Day, all 3 at once. This means fathers go out at lunch time and get pissed in the woods. I shall be working until that point and then ttfn. Tomorrow most people take a bridging day, I shall work with hangover, from home in me skiddies
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

    Holland has 2 public holidays this week, yesterday was Queens day and then Ascenion today. And as with Germany, many people are taking tomorrow off work as a bridging day.
    Luckily, although I normally work in Holland, this week I'm working from home and still doing a full week

      What's the significance of the 'woods'?

              Currently sat in hotel in my pants after way too much "dancing into May" lastnight.

              Fortunately,as mentioned, everyone else is on holidays so it's quite peaceful.

              Currywurst for lunch I feel.

              Thank Wilmslow for late checkouts.
