    Friday at 4 then not back to work till the 8th but seeing as I work in London and live in Kerry and I haven't had a holiday since Feb I deserve the time off.

    i work nights and its end of the busiest quarter of the year so i'm off xmas eve and day and back on the 26th until new years eve and then meant to be just back to work as normal after that. i actually have to work more over xmas than any other time of year. Taking two weeks holidays from the 1st though to go spend it with the gf before she goes back to london for college.

    Roll on the end of Febuary when i tell these ****ers to stick their job in their hole as soon as my yearly bonus gets into my bank a/c and i move to london to get back to being a musician again.
