Holiday time

August is a big holiday time for the UK. School holidays hit for 6 weeks and parents take time off to care for them as costs can get rather extortionate for that period of time to look after them. Work starts to get quieter as meetings are put off until after August and it has a bit of a ghost ship feeling in the office. Couple this with people sick with “swine flu” and you have fabulously quiet roads, plenty of car parking and no support calls to take! Bliss!

Actually to be honest, it makes the day drag. I prefer to be so busy you forget to eat – unfortunately that happens rarely. Pity, cheap way to lose weight 😉

So August is when we have our next holiday planned for. OK so this wasn’t our best choice but the next available time would be September, I can’t wait until then. So prices are hiked and I am sure we will encounter many crowds. As long as we just chill and take our time we will be fine.
