    Day off. What to do?

    I find myself with a rare day off, no work to do, no missus and no kids.

    But what to do? I don't feel like posting on CUK all day!

    Think I might go and book a 2 hour massage at the local spa and watch an episode of Bargain Hunt.

    Any other suggestions?

    Go back to bed.

      Pot Noodle has a Christmas version out so maybe you're the targetted market "man alone around Christmas in the house with plenty of tissues"..

        Read a book
        Do all your xmas shopping
        Get drunk
        Do all the crappy jobs around the house you keep putting off
        Play with your special little friend
        Cook lunch naked
        Troll on mumsnet again

          Knit yourself some fingerless gloves?
          While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

            Do your Xmas shopping, or were you planning on selecting some random tat from the shop on Xmas Eve for the family?

                  I'd join you (in the metaphotical sense) but I'm
                  a) In the office (no snow between Southampton and Basingstoke) and
                  b) have already finished all my shopping (and wrapped most of it).

                  Now I can sit back and watch everyone on the news getting stressed with their last minute panic buying. Go today MF, you know it makes sense...

                    Did all my Christmas shopping in a couple of hours sat at my PC the other week. Amazon what a joy.

                    All wrapped, some has already been dispatched.

                    Enjoy your day out MF.
                    Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.
