Bank Holidays !

I hate bank holidays. Why ? Because the company I work for decided about 5 years back to give its employees 6 days and in return abolished 5 bank holidays (bar Christmas Day).

Well done to that company, you might say, but here I am, sitting in the office on a sunny Bank Holiday May Day while the world and his wife spend time in the parks with friends and/or family - consuming ales and spirits. Playing badminton, netball or whatever. Oh it's just not fair.

I can hear you asking why I didn't take the bank holiday off then ? Well, I wanted to avoid the busy roads and take the time off another day....

Oh just forget this article again, will you ? :-)
