    Looking forward to having a nice break. Taking the nipper out for a few walks, wifes best mate is having a baby shower on saturday so shes out all day. Luckily the baby wants to watch man utd / everton first before going out ;)

    Great its going to be sunny, going to make the most of it. Also going to enjoy the royal wedding the following week (wont watch it) but will have a drink for them, after all i've got the day off

    yeah sounds like you will have a good time, i ended up getting the royal wedding day off in the end. some of our staff still have to work, no idea why, because we dont work bank holidays. i'll prolly watch it on the TV, or at least play on my PC whil ei force my gf to watch it so she can shout me for any bits of interest like famous people in the audience or harry lighting up a bifta.

    Well, I'm one of the millions that's got 11 days off starting from tomorrow and I can't wait. Definitely no sobbing in the bath for me! :D

    No particular plans, am planning visit some family for a few days next week.

    I suppose the roads are gonna be busy whenever I go... Wanted to pop down to the beach (north Devon) for a day, so I guess I'll have to leave at stupid-o'clock-in-the-morning to miss most of the traffic.

    I had booked those 3 days off (so it would be one huge holiday) but the missus couldnt so i cancelled them, (was tempting so i could have 3 days of 'boy time' - no miles its not like that !).

    Anyway going to be a great time relaxing, nice weather, need to get some beers in (been 3 months since i've last drank !) and just enjoy

    No. I'm going to have an orgy of Starcraft 2 playing.

    I will probably play a bunch of games of SC2 on the ladder and get demoted a league, and then start sobbing...

    LOL - I like that - it made me laff!!
    I'm not doing much - going round the parents on Sunday for lunch. I dare say there will be a few Speccy games played and just general shenannigans, really.

    i think i might have to get a bunch of lamb chops and bath them in lovely mint sauce. ;)

    Oh yes - sounds good, mate. I think beef is on the menu for us on Sunday.

    I'm not really doing anything special. Going to see a mate's band on Saturday night, barbecue Sunday with the family. Apart from that I'll generally be drinking lots of beer in the evenings, and catching up on sleep in the mornings. :smile:

    got to put the nipper's cot back together in preparation for the new arrival next month which I am not looking forward to :sad:

    leaving the office shortly to get a couple of games for my new 360, hopefully will get a few hours over the coming long weekends to try them out :smile:

    Welcome back to sleepless nights and nappies ! ;)

    Cant believe ours is 6 months now, feel like i'm going mad when i'm watching 'in the night garden' with her, thats some weird aciddey type trip

    in the night garden is freaky mate, it mesmerised our son for about 6 months or so. Then he grew out of it thankfully, so now we're stuck with crap like Fireman Sam and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

    The only cartoon he watches that i like is Mr.Bean, but we've had to stop him watching it because he started "talking" like him :lol:

    is portal 2 out today?

    might get that if its the case, thought there would be loads of threads about it on here, what with all the love HL2 and portal gets.
  • edited April 2011
    I think Portal/HL is love or hate...I fall into the latter category.

    Yup the arcades are still there Fog.
    There is also a casino now as well.
    Am more interested in my g/f than the arcades though ;)

    Hmm, I honestly don't understand why everyone is talking about barbecues, etc. I can understand why this weekend is important for religious people, but why is it important for everybody else? Just because so many people don't go to work?

    To me it's just another Sunday. I usually work every Sunday, but this time I'll stay home and rest. That's the only thing I'm thankful for.

    It's a long weekend. Nice weather here and no work in Monday so time to get the beers out

    Reminds me of the Thanks giving weekend then, when people bridge it and start their weekend on Thursday, thus making it a 4-day "weekend". Unfortunately for me I have to work every Black Friday (the day after Thanks Giving) because it's a crazy sale day for all retail stores. It's when people might run over you as soon as you open the door, etc.
