      I'm lucky my holiday year runs June to June, so I still have quite a bit left.

            I'll be working till the 24th. The powers that be have changed out holiday year from Jan-Dec to Oct-Sept and there's no way I'm going to burn through holiday this early in the year.

              My PC seems to be taking ages to do even the smallest thing at the moment. Time for a reload, I think...

              So you are also having a computer like mine. I can understand your condition. In my case, open three VS instance and computer dies.

                  Ours in Jan-Dec, I'm really lucky I still have that day though. Because we're spending xmas at the gf's parents' place, which requires venturing half way round the M25, which on xmas eve I'm sure would be lovely, especially with the road works covering from about Enfield all the way to the A12 still being there, 50mph average cameras all the way :(

                    I fly out to Sharm El Sheikh on Sunday Morning, and I have just checked, it will be 28 in the shade, and there is no shade! :) Two weeks of "Abdul, more Gin!" and "Oh No, another meal!" and "I think I will go for a dip in the pool to cool down a bit". But mainly, "Abdul, More Gin!"

                            I have 3 spare days holiday (and Christmas eve we are closed), but I'm still working right up until the 23rd because it was decided we had to have one programmer in to resolve urgent issues and I drew the short straw.

                              So far the only holiday I have used this year was to go to a week-long First Aid duty at my Uni. This'll be my first proper holiday since I started. Just got to work out what I'll do with the rest now... (Probably more First Aid duties :suss:)

                                          It is a wrong time when I am reading this post. I am using my personal computer. Here, things are entirely different. 5 VS 2008, 2 VS 2005 and 2 VS 2010, 1 SQL Mgmt Studio (dev edition), 3 tray processes (important ones, AV not included), 6 CP tabs, 5 others, and a scan going on. Things still are pretty normal. (Not that I am doing anything, just opened to check what my computer can bear)
